I am really happy for you. This is the sort of thing that happened to me before and as a patient at Menninger's. The others were so different; one was even an infant that wet the bed and pooped in her pants. I had one that was a in your face teenager and others too. What I was able to do there was integrate the different entitites or whatever one wants to call them--parts, alters, etc. I still did not, however, deal with the abuse to the extent needed. I convinced my self I was fine, and though I was able to know and remember things from the past at that point, I just decided to set it all aside and seal it away. It worked for a long time and until I started to have all sorts of physical stuff go wrong with me. I then started to feel vulnerable again, in a different way, but still vulnerable, and bam! It hit me like a lead ballon, and I felt so overwhelmed. I have to be thankful for my past therapy that allowed me most of the time to manage to keep my sh*t together and not go off the deep end. So, good luck. You will be okay. It will be painful; I won't lie, but you can do it.
Funny, with your comments about the migraines and all, I used to have them too before I was able to get the gang together under one roof so to speak and to work together with each other. They are after all parts of who we are. Take care.
