I often let the parts write in alternating voices. It helps sort out all the conflicting feelings. And I'll hear different responses in my head to things.
I've been known to pace around and talk to myself. Lucky for me, I give lots of speeches and people usually assume I'm just practicing. :)
But giving voice to things and talking to yourself is a great way to soothe yourself. I think it stops the looping that can occur when we keep the thoughts quiet.
And I like what Dinah said - things do ebb and flow - we feel connected and then not and then connected again. I do wish there was a way to anchor ourselves; I'm personnally working on being a barnacle.
