I can manage my dissociation through grounding techniques and internal dialogue with my different parts.
All of my alternate personalities helped me cope with the trauma that was too hard for my entire brain to absorb. I am safe and in control. I am no longer in the dangerous places. I have a right to my feelings and opinions. I have a right to assert boundaries without fear of being physically harmed or threatened. I have many strengths. It is okay for me to ask for help. It is okay for me to say no. It is okay for me to take a break. |

..That I can, and should, make boundaries, too. Definitely. Boundaries are not just in the ‘therapist’s’ domain.
...To recognize unethical, bizarre, hurtful therapist behaviors. You’d think I would have known this but didn’t. ‘Therapy’ can mean so many different things..there are so many different types of ‘therapists’’ and ‘therapy’.... It didn’t occur to me that a medical doctor, a psychiatrist...would try to harm me. |

To be honest and open as much as possible. Plus to be assertive if I believe I'm not being treated fairly in therapy
