Host phobic of switching?

Any suggestions? my host feels pretty phobic of switching I guess its just the sensation hes scared of like hes dying not concerned of what alters will do..everyone is on terms with safety . Any ways to make it easier? Ive tried telling him hell be alive, to try one alter for a minute but it doesnt really last.Host is always co conscious. but we need body time one at a time. The alters are past their boiling point and are going to do really bad stuff.

Have you told the others that the host is scared? That he doesn't like the switching sensation? Its not that he doesn't trust them or doesn't want to give them time, he's just scared?

I (OB) and mostly coconcious with the others, and its easy to forget that the other are not cocon with each other! I'm often surprised about how little they know/understand each other.

For us, body sharing is just something that 'happens'. MB has executive control ATM.. Not sure how long that will last.. MB doesn't believe that the others exist.. So its awfully quite atm. Some like Rowe just burst out when they feel like it, littles are only out at home (their choice I think)

Try acting as a interpreter between host & others & come to some kind of middle ground.

Hi !
I'm scared of switching too, I've got a strond death phobia, and switching look too much like disapering to me, even if I know it's not.
But I understand the need of being out of the insiders, so we searched a lot how to make everyone happy, and we finally learn how to be co-present at will. This way, I'm still out, I have to make myself discreet (not easy when you're used to be the only one out ) and this way, the other who's out with me can do what he want.
We feel it safer for the insiders too, because the shy ones weren't out alone, and if I have to be back in control, it takes less than a seconde.

I'm scared of switching also. So far Howl and I just share or he can use my hands to write in my journal. He has no interest in switching which is fine, but I feel like when he does he might get annoyed because I'm too scared.

Sorry for the long post, its very confusing right now to do this, because of the host doesn't want me to.The true hidden host is phobic in there throwing out excuses amongst his helpers.It doesnt seem to matter what i tell the host. ? I don't have a name im a mix of alters he forces together.i take the pain and work on and decide how to pick apart his lies about why he wont let anyone out fully.

I finally got him or someone to allow an alter to have a percentage of the body , the transformation feels so relieving .he'll let different alters have a different limb. but he lets them get nothing out of their life get up and do what they need. he wont go co conscious to let the alters accomplish their personal goals. no one has a turn. so the body can switch some what 50% maybe or or people with different voices to say what i am saying. I finally had an idea to ask , why cant the host allow a full switch for just a split second if he has no fear of switching. what could happen? he has communication and control the way he'll mess me up if i get too close to the truth hes hiding . for months he led me down the path thinking he was deathly homophobic, or afraid of disease,afraid to act like feminine. it must be what the DID book says about common host fear of switching ,anticipating a loss of complete control over the alters or avoiding the feeling of a death like experience with PHOBIC INTENSITY.

the host is completely terrified . no one ever responds. any recommendations a book or how to get the host to switch. I'm sure the alters are aware they belong to a body, and aware of each other,work together ,they get jealous and upset when Ive been places where theyd like to do something enjoyable. Thank You for reading it is much appreciated.

i don't know how to let any of the others take over. sometimes when some have gotten close, it is terrifying for me, and i am not able to give up that control. i would like to be able to just because i know they need to be able to speak as themselves and not have me speak for them. but i also know that they probably don't feel safe enough to yet maybe either. it is confusing and difficult. the fear of losing control is too much.

Idk, Ive tried all of your advice, and its not working.The host doesnt tell why hes horrified of switching. feel helpless, this has gone on too long.

What use would there be in having full control of the body for only a split second?

It was to see if the host would prove he could switch for a second so none of the altars could actually have enough time to do what he claims he fears.

If you can keep it phobic and full of anxiety maybe it will keep you not switching. I support the decision.. Any suggestions would probably be to start subtle affirm a switch is this post one. I enjoy the words discussed the suggestions to not stay in the same place. I would show the other side we are safe and get them to understand the people factor. I would allow them to know ones that get stuck and or anxious hence the name multiple personality disorder dissociative identity....
