(((((((((((((( freewill & others )))))))))))))))))

I can't comment on the age thing...but I can say that I understand how when someone does something differently from me in the house, I get a little irritated myself. But I always remind myself that there is always more than one good way to do something...and that helps me to calm down a bit. Hey, at least the others are folding the towels right? I think I would be more upset if they didn't help

I am so very glad to hear that host is healing. I hope you are all healing.....getting better every single day.

I never know my age, lol. When someone asks me my age, I always tell them the year I was born and let them figure it out because I'm never sure of the year now either. As for me, it doesn't bother me. T and I talked about this once and realized it was kind of a blessing because I don't really worry about things like getting older a lot of the time. I just kind of go along as I am. Age is relative.

As far as things getting done differently, that's always happened and so I guess I don't worry about that either. I've never had control of how things are done in my life and so I guess I don't expect that things will be done how I want them. I don't know that I even have a preference. I guess it's from past programming and not having been allowed to ever have a say in things but it does make things more amicable now I think.

I just met with my new T for the first time today, and I let my violent alter speak to her. I didn't intervene because I thought it was important for him to expirience it himself,

But my last name is G---- and he kept insisting that his lastname was Casil.

It was funny and cute, but at the same time difficult because the therapist almost wrote down my last name on a form as Casil. But she realised he was just unaware of the situation.

But yes, it is hard sometimes, said alter also likes to dump everything I own onto the floor. No matter how often I clean or organize, the moment he comes out, he decides to dump everything. It's annoying. People think I'm a slob.

Also, some of my alters think they are older than I am. And some (this is common) are younger and insist on their age.

I usually avoid situations, where my idenity is used, I should talk to my T about that.

Good luck with this.
