Identifying selves.
for those that have "inner kids", alters, and just plain 'others' that want to speak. i wonder if there is a way we can identify them when talking.
i think i will try to alter my signature.
normally B2c. i will alter maybe to:
b2l- for little one
b2t-for teen
b2o-for old lady...though i doubt she'll post here. thats not her thing.you'll probably mostly be hearing from teen. hehe sorry bout that in advance.
b2c

I know you're not suggesting it, but just as a general note - Dr. Bob's rule here is one screen name per household.
Signatures are another matter.

Hi B2chica,
It's my inner 10-year-old who has been troubled lately, but I'm sure my inner teen would love to talk to yours.

oh my...confusion..i better clarify.
i don't mean changing our names...
i just mean when we write and post that at the bottom of the paragraph where we usually put name real or user name that maybe we can identify 'who's doing the writing. so we're not actually changing anything...just clarifying.and the 'typical' b2c will stay "b2c"....i just thought if i change the last letter from 'c', to L or T or O that it will make it clearer.
my guess is only teen will make herself known here. so most likely you will see either B2c (me) or B2t (teen)...
that way people know if i'm yelling that its just a part of me having a coniption...(sp?) :^)BUT it's just something i thought i'd do...others don't need/want/have to...
but i think it helps clarify for me sometimes.
thanks

Hi Poet!!
so sorry your young ones been not so good.
if teen pops out today i'll make sure and post it.... i'm sure she'd LOVE to chat!
but she CAN be mouthy...
i wish i could choose when she does and doesn't appear....man this lack of control thing kinda freaks me out more than anything. she's not here when i'd like her to, and here when i don't want her....
if we could just all agree it'd be a LOT easier on things!have more to post but be back later when i can write more.

Cool idea B2. Though if you don't mind, will it cause trouble if a call you just B2, cuz its easier? no matter which one I am talking to? Just when I am posting and thinking I proly will forget and I don't mean to piss anyone off. I have one who INSISTS that she too is muffled and gets mad when referred to otherwise...though no so much lately.
ROFL! Ya. i'll watch out for teen!
As for myself doing it, I'm not always sure where I am at.
I had a call w/T, and afterwards I decifered it, and I realized that I started as adult, went to ikid at the talk of snow! and then toughie swept in and closed the conversation off. So I suspect that I am whoever I need to be at the time. I think I been doing this so long that its mostly seamless, and I've been 'covering' and working so hard to appear 'normal' for so long, that I have it down into an art form. So I just write muffled and leave it at that...
But thanks for you doing it, I think its a gREAT idea!
:-)

That sounds like a good idea. And, I rather like B2t (teen).

I think this is a good idea I am not sure I always know right now. I will try. Just a question for those with others at first when you became aware were you afraid or nervous of them?

well, its kinda hard to explain. because i am 'present' when they are around but i'm just, well, kinda in the passenger seat. but i guess "they've" just always been around (sometimes in different states) and i've been aware of my 'changes'...i just never had anyone put a name to them before. and by 'different states' i just mean that like teen wouldnt talk...the ANGER/RAGE would just full fledged come out and with little one, she wouldnt talk i would just totally dissociate..sometimes loosing a bit of time but its cuz i went totally inside myself. its like my brain would shut down. course that could have been oldone shutting things down as well...not sure.
i've always been afraid (not of teen) but the anger because its so uncontrolled.
BUT the funny thing is, once T did put a name to what was going on...it REally made things clear...like id just say...Oh that Explains it. and at first i actually felt better about things.
so one way it was a relief...and other..yes, a bit scary.not so much of them...but sometimes of their EXTREME emotion. or of what is to be done in the future...

B2c, that helps because I've only been around a couple times lately and the one that is there is ANGRY and RAGES too and I am not sure what she would do and I am not sure if I could control it. At first when T labelled me one said yes that is it and another one justed didn't believe it, saying no one you would tell will believe it so it is just lies. My mom told me so many lies as a child and I think the ikid believes still all adults lie. And just waits for the lie to come to light. The warring inside just makes me want quiet you know. I agree the what is to be done in the future makes me tired. All my emotions seem to be extreme be T says that is because most of them are stuck at a particular age and the emtions have had no outlet. So adult me is left depressed I think. T said I have probably been depressed my whole life. Anyway, thanks for the explanation of yours. It helps and sorry I misdirected the thread. Maybe it will help mine be identified. rk
