Clearly, from what you have written on your posts , your life is basically in shambles and you say you are all over the place emotionally and reality wise. On the other hand, you also have posted that you are attention seeking and a drama queen. I make a guess on this but assume you like all the attention some of the crazier postings here give you. That is not the best thing for you. Being healthy needs to be more important that being 'out there.'
For example, have you considered that publicly encouraging your separation via alters by giving them so much press and attention might be terribly counterproductive and contributes to your chaos and confusion with regard to being able to distinguish what is real from what isnt real?
Your alters dont need to be validated by anyone but you. Alters are unconsciously created as a self defense, in reaction to terrible life and soul threatening early childhood trauma. It is those early childhood expereinces and associated feelings that in time you will work through via therapy and learn to face and accept as your own. That is the essence of recovery and integration.
I wish you well. Take care.

My t had different parts of me write (journal) both to him and to each other as a way of gaining co-consciouness, understanding and cooperation. I found it really helpful to give different parts voice and to identify who was saying what.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
