Talking to the others *triggerwarning*

Hi,
lots is happening lately, our communication seem definitely to increase.
Lots of good advice in several topics on this site regarding communication and an increase of awareness from my side and theirs obviously. They listen. There have been instances.

Only struggling with talking back.

*triggerwarning* communication

Our communication seem to increase, whipesers become actual voices, deepening out, accompanied with images, presences, accents, qualities, vibes. Which makes us wonder if names are really the first thing necessary. It comes also the other way around I guess. But yet, there is still doubt which we obviously should ditch.
I ask inside what they look like, to describe themselves, attempting honest and intentional communication for the sake of getting to know better. Intention is an huge key-element for us.
Im at loss with direct communication. Right now, I hear someone, zooming in she(?) seems very young. I try to honor and respect everyone in this system, welcoming them, and inviting them to come in the body. Which seems most natural for us. This site has helped us much now its sinking in and our communication seem to improve.

Im at loss with direct communication. They are around, I feel their presences. Allowing them to write, express themslves, giving them tools to do so. When they are around, its even clearer who they somewhat are, but no names, or ages or anything. I feel like missing the obvious. As if there is something that distracts but am not sure about this.

When I hear talk, I try to "hear in"so to say. Listening what they say. But I have no clue how to talk back and get an established one on one communication. perhaps this just takes time, i dont know.
Its as if I suddenly blank out and forget how to speak, what to ask, as if directly discouraged to do so. Perhaps I am comparing to much with other systems still who have clearer communication? We seem to work towards switching at will tho.
Out loud talking back works but not always..

*end triggerwarning*

Does anyone has suggestions? Im not gonna force anything, just keep going as we are going, having patience, allowing them to write, encourage and support.
Im not even sure what im asking now. Its obvious but have no clue how to start.

Me?

For me, for much of my life, I have had times when I can "feel" them around me. It feels at times like I am being haunted or having a spiritual experience that comes from this awareness of their presence. But like you, I often find it hard to communicate. Actually reading your post is a help to me because I realize that I have been wishing for words a lot of the time and I don't think that is how it usually happens for me.

I wonder if you can try "sending images" to your others. At first your power to do this could be very weak, but it will likely increase with repeated light effort. Drawing or if you play an instruments could help. I would think even dedicating actions to them, "this muffin I am making is for you!" could help. Inviting them in and being consistent in effort might be a key.

I should take my own advice. It's just so hard and sometimes scary to remember. Plus it feels weird.

MultipleMinds,

Congrats on seeing an increase in communication. That's great news.

We agree that it does take time. And we find it hard to be patient sometimes. But patience and persistence do pay off.

Sending encouragement.

hello and thank you.
It seems that dissociation causes some sort of "response" when trying to talk to "the others", causing it to be clueless. It shows that i/we arent really alone in this system ( and others perhaps ) right now I feel an presence close somewhat.

There seem to be an increasing, an adjustment or something, im not sure. As if others others will contact me while "I" remain supportive, welcoming and encouraging. perhaps its an "tuning in" thing. An "aha"moment, working towards an breakthrough? I know it is hard, and often dont know which feelings are who's still when they seep/leak through.

Sending images seem to work quite well. Like sending an message. That dedicating to others is also an great...forgot the word. ah, suggestion, thank you.
Sending messages systemwide so to say, to give of an message to whoever is listening, paying attention and so encouraging them.

There are topics on this site talking about communication.
If it is possible, I would say, look up on topics from Tomboy24 and Johnny-jack and others. These have been very helpfull for me/us.

The last paragraph is so recognizable. Were all about talking and all, communication lately, yet we faal short on it still

Thank you Md's.
Its good to hear from others that it takes patience and time. Its...different then trying to convice ourselves or read topics. I/we find it hard to be patient aswell. Oh well, it cant be forced, and from our experience, getting fed up and worked up does not really help, tho it can be frustrating. it causes an loss of overview and possible walls going up/isolation even if not intended on purpose.

Thank you's for the encouragement

Just wanted to add..
I seem to unconsciously block them out. Its like, attention goes away from the others, tho I know that they involve themselves in writing. It feels a bit ( not sure if that is the right word ) as if turning attention away from them. Could be old coping ways I think. This also happens when there is high anxiety and confusion going on, as if "tuning out". Perhaps this will increase eventually as they break through more to my consciousness/awareness, as their voices getting louder, more "formed".
just wanted to add that. Not that I can escape, they eventually take over anyway
