Hi. What do you mean, you're done with therapy?
i know that i don't understand so much of what's made you feel like quitting but i think that you should give yourself another chance. Really a lot of more chances because it's hard to be multiple and it's so hard to find a T to work with to get better- less separated into parts.One of the hardest things is to try to have a good self image when you have parts. My Parts are opposites. They're polarized, at extreme sides against each other. i can't look at one part and her thoughts and actions and take my self image from that- you shouldn't either- we are the sum of our parts. Our parts are extreme and it's not our fault - we've been split up because of trauma and not there isn't a nicely balanced person in any one part. i'm so sorry that it's like that. Please realize that all the parts together are you and give your parts grace. You need them all.
When we're multiple we have the chance to have every possible viewpoint on every single thing that happens -one part will always be opposite another , in my system anyways - it's not how we feel- just one part's way of seeing it,
it's so hard to live this way, we misunderstand ourselves and other misunderstand us because of the polarized opposite views we have. Please don't take one without the others. You love and have ALWAYS loved your child.And Cricket, there are other therapists out there. Don't give up therapy because of one therapist not working out. i don't know all of what happened but you can always change therapists and not give up. You're worth it.
