<<She changed. We talked. She blamed me for what has happened. I cried. She too. We talked more. I told her how brave she was for talkin now.>>

Sounds like you are doing great listening and comforting her. I have children and i I listen to them, encourage them to use their voices -comfort them when they have fears - sounds like you are doing that!

I'm sorry the host is gone but you are probably more capable than you realize-

I ve had a long chat with Indie.

She s changing, back to her first form and then changin into a healthier form. She s used to the dark, so I get she s still confused.

THIS she told me: the flashbacks she has and that take over the entire system are happenin for her ALL THE FREAKIN TIME. Not just when we see them.

I got upset. I started to shout. How DARED that ********* be in my system like that?
I understood why Indie was so cross with me.

We ve agreed upon protectin her and next week we ll deal with the two abusive alters we ve found in the system.

I feel such a failure for not havin realised sooner. THe hell she s been through never ended.

I told her we d be there no matter what social situation we re in. And I did. I hang up the phone I top eatin whenever she s there in need me and Book come to the rescue.

We rescued her three times, fourth was pretty close. Poor thing. at first she wouldn t even look at me, now she jumps in my arms.

Is that a sign of affection? I don t get kids really. I was surprised at the hug. She wouldn t let go, she buried her face in my neck and stayed.
Is that progress too?

Love

That is great great progress, and I'm so proud of you :)

Absolutely :) It's a sign of affection, trust.. It's usually a way to kind of.. realize you're protecting her.

That is wonderful. You're doing an important job with her :) I'm happy you're sharing it here :)

I'm sorry. You're doing good though and she's a part of you, so I'm sure somehow she knows :)

Thinking of you.

I know I was supposed to write something important here but I can't remember what :(

I would like to say though that we were able to help a deeply traumatized part yesterday and it was wonderful to see and feel. We are making progress with the alter this post was about as well as others.

Healing is happening :)
