Is it a psych hospital? If so, they can help you with that. Do they specialize in Dissociative disorders? Keep breathing. You can do this. Please keep us posted. We are thinking of you.

Sorry SilentandScared, just saw your post in the health forum. I'm sorry you are having to go through that. Can they give you anxiety medicine to help you through?
I know here, even though I get scared to death about things, another part of me takes over during that time and is calm to do whatever needs to be done. Maybe that will happen with you? One thing my T has said to me is to trust my system because ultimately it does what it needs to do to get through whatever it is I need to get through. It's hard to remember that when I'm scared though. I hope the time will go quickly for you. Please keep us posted. We want to support you.

I know all about that fear and having to undress..I hate it!
What gets me through is: -having my fiance there with me. -Breathing long deep breaths in and out -knowing that there is nothing they have not seen -reminding myself that they are not the offenders -bringing a book or video game to play Sometimes those don't work, but I try them anyways. Good luck.

We are so glad you you are all going to be safe and looked after for a while as we was very worried about you all. I know hospital is not good but it will keep you all safe for now until things are a bit more calmer for you all.

just a reminder about the book with the doctor letters. it is called "got parts? an insiders guide to managing life successfully with dissociative identity disorder" and is by ATW.

Keep working on this - you will get there. Accept there are parts. Be kind and gentle with them. Working with parts and feelings is the key to happiness. We have been happy before when listened to them and accepted them and were open to feelings. Write in your journal - it is safe to do so.

dear silentandscared,
we are sorry you have to go to the hospital. we wish we could do something to make it feel better, safer, warmer. we care about you. all us multiples are survivors and we somehow have great skills that will help us. there are people who care and who will do their medical best for you. i know the fear of being vulnerable, unclothed. this is not like abuse, it is only to help you get treatment. if you have a security animal or object and it will help your littles or any part of you, then take it and don't feel weird about anything. whatever will help you feel calmer, safer is just good because it will help keep your stress down. if possible, talk to the people working with you and ask for what you need-they are there for you so don't be shy about telling them things. hugs and more hugs. you need them, i want to give them. keep posting when you can and let us support you here. leslie and her pixies
