Twitching

TheCollective wrote:It seems really cool to me. So the other day I tried asking inside when I felt my right side twitch, and it turned out to be an alter who had a problem with some current life trouble that has been going on, cause the twitching had been going on for days, possibly longer, and when I started talking to her it stopped. So I guess it works, but I've only tried it this one time.

I haven't tried it much after that but I get random twitches sometimes still and I think sometimes it's alters, but I'm not sure. Good luck with this

think I really need to also start paying more attention to the impressions or emotions I get too. I still find myself a lot of time, blowing everything off as usual.

The other day in public at a store with an emplyee, my mouth twitched adn a deeper voice spoke. Well We dont seem to have a clue who this is or what was said. We are in the process of tryingto slow things down, so I am not pursering it with much effort, but I am curious how this related to my DID world. Also about 4 months now, at night differetn parts think stuff until we fall asleep... about 6 times a night I remember as my head jerks abruptly adn the train of thought changes . I know thi isnt exacatly what the topic was about, but it made this phenomena come to mind

I think most of us have been there, just blowing things off. I'm trying not to now but I know it happens sometimes still. It's a good thing to be conscious of though

I don't believe I've ever had my mouth twitch, that would feel weird! Interesting someone else spoke when that happened!

I've also had the body jerks at night. I'd get the mind chatter that would seem to keep me stuck in a half in half out of sleep state for most of the night. I figured it was bc my mind was so active I could really fall asleep. I also figured the body jerks were just a reaction from being stuck in this state. The mind chatter were like voices, they were loud, but seemed to be on the other side of a wall. So, no matter how much I tried to hear what they were saying it was rare for me to actually hear what they were saying. I could hear different voices, and could tell there was a dialog going on between these voices, but could rarely hear what they were saying. The body jerks I'd get when I'd hear them wasn't too bad though.

A few weeks ago I think one of the alters were trying to show me a traumatic memory, the others didn't agree and was trying to stop it. I thought it was just nightmares, but my whole body was jerking all over the place for about an hour. Never had it that bad before!

It's like a really bad life long habit that seems almost impossible to break. I'm so used to blowing things off and forgetting about things, I'm having a hard time not doing that. Sometimes I'll think back on something and realize how important it was and wonder why I didn't think at the time to pay attention!
