For the teenagers!

Hi Devon,
I am 14 too. I am happy that there are other teens out there like me.
I hope everyone is good, I am just very sleepy today.

Hi!

Pammie all your crafting stuff sounds pretty ace and interesting, and it's good that you can try stuff out and experiment. Did you say your wand has teddy bear arms and legs? That's a cool idea and like, hard to even imagine! I'm trying to worry less about messing up when I try and do stuff, but I'm not doing all that well at it yet. (I'm even messing up at not worrying about messing up LOL).

It's good to meet you Devin and I'm sorry you couldn't see your T in his office. I really don't like it when we have to do Zoom or the phone either. I did speak to our T on the phone on Wednesday, but then her family felt better and they all tested negative so that meant I could go there again today (my session days are Wednesday and Thursday and the other inside-people get other days). We didn't get to play the game I wanted to play though because I was all cryee McCryface. But I guess that's the place it's ok to be emotional and everything, even if it's weird for me to cry in front of someone. I usually try and be tough and like, not show it if I care about something or things hurt or whatever.

I hope you can go back and see your T in real life again soon Devin, and that everyone else is doing ok too.

hi Cat & Pammie & Devin & Tammie

all the crafting and stuff sounds really cool! wands & bears & eggs & stuff.

our T doesnt draw or craft or anything like that. she acts like the younger parts are grownups cos thats what the body looks like. maybe she's nicer to people who look young but not to us. so i'm never going to see her.

its super cold & snowy here so we're not going out much at all. the other day we fell on some ice & now we're really sore & stuff. viola was super embarased about falling but it was really slippery & not her fault.

Hi Vanessa

That sucks about your T. Our T did that for ages too. I mean aaaages! I wasn't around near the front so much then so it wasn't as bad for me, but K says that when little R was around our T just kept on talking to her as if she was talking to an adult because she couldn't see that R was little. And she expected her to be able to understand adult stuff and behave like an adult and R couldn't do that. It hurt her really a lot, I think. And K too. That was a bad time for us and I can understand why you don't want to go there if your T is like that. Our T learned how to do it better though and now she plays Sylvanian families with R and knows how to treat us the right way for our ages. I don't know how our T learned what to do though or if your T might be able to learn. I'm sorry that you can't go see her though. It sounds pretty not fun.

Falling is also not fun! I like snow and ice but not when it makes you fall. That's embarrassing, especially if anyone sees. I hope you're not sore for long. It's cold here too, but not snow cold. And it's quite sunny so that ought to be good. I'm feeling down right now though and not much is making me happy. K even let me buy some stuff to make mosaics today, but I'm still all mopey. I don't even know why. Lame.

Hope everyone else is doing ok!

LOL: "cryee McCryface" I love it!! We're like that a LOT in therapy. Not me, because I hardly go there. I mostly only write to the T when the littles are hurt or mad and the protectors are too angry to talk to him.

Oh, btw I'm Sasha and I'm 20. I haven't posted here in FOREVER!! Also, everyone has been avoiding writing in the journal and that's the only time they really LISTEN to me!!

Oh, someone wrote something about wanting their own friends and to dance and stuff. We do that by taking community college classes and dance classes so we get to be with younger people. In the last class we took at the college, we needed a partner for a project and it turned out the one we picked was 16 and it was fun to hang out with her. And we made friends with a cute guy who was like 20-something and we worked on a project with him, too. (But, like, we have a husband, so it's not like anything was going to happen. But he was super nice and seemed like he liked us even though the body is way way older.)

Anyway, hi to all the newbies. Oh, and hi to Cody--I hope you're ok!! I miss you, girlfriend, and I hope you can write sometime soon!!

Sasha <3 <3 <3

Hi Cat,

Our T knows Ciara's only 10, Em's reminded her about that a lot, but T still doesn't act different. Or actually she does act different, but not in a good way. T likes to work with older selves like Em and makes it harder for younger selves like Ciara. So I will never ever talk to her because I don't want to deal with an annoying adult.

I'm sorry you're feeling down and mopey, I hope you feel better soon. Mosaics sound cool, I hope you have fun making them.

Vanessa

p.s. viola waves & says hello to Sasha

Hi I guess i am a teen, as most of us are. Teens are hosts, so we all forget we are teens and think we're adults. i guess it's typical hu?
Ok, most of us are 15, there are 3 Insider people here (now anyways), Anubis (typing), striker, and Alexis (listening in...) This whole board thing and finding this forum is confusing after it kicked me out for logging in, and Striker had to help me.

So... We're not in any type of therapy, I see you were talking about that. it does suck that multiples don't gain a super power and are able to shape shift. I know Striker wouldn't want to for work. he has human form he made, as the other one would scare people... Anyways.
So, I guess I'll hyjack the topic, or just have another topic running, either or.
Inside I look like a human, but bulker (like a big dog interms of bulkiness), and I have black short fur.
Anubis

Hi everyone.

Wow, lots of people I didn't meet yet! Good to meet you Sasha and Anubis and striker and Alexis.

Vanessa, I totally get why you wouldn't want to see your T if she is making things harder for Ciara and easier for older selves. That really doesn't seem fair. Especially if Ciara is only 10. She shouldn't have to deal with that. Adults are super weird and annoying sometimes. (Read - nearly all the time!) Ugh. Is there anyone in your system that's good at talking to your T about stuff your T does that makes you guys unhappy? K's pretty good at that in our system. She just keeps going on at our T until our T gets the point! And then our T is pretty good at fixing things again. But I guess it depends on whether your T is going to listen too. I guess not all of them do. Sorry it's so sucky.
I'm a bit more cheery today for some reason, so that's good. But waiting for the mosaic stuff is annoying!

Sasha, that was me that was talking about wanting my own friends and stuff! It's really cool that you can go to classes and meet people and do projects. It's hard for me to do that cos I'm not very well and going out is hard. And anyway K always does all the talking to people that aren't our T. Like, this one time the doorbell rang when I was at the front, so I went to answer, but as soon as I met the delivery guy, K just automatically switched into the front and neither of us could stop it! So I don't know if I can ever really talk to anyone. I hope I can one day though and then I'm gonna try and do some of that stuff you're doing. Thanks for the ideas! And it's good to hear that other people are all cryee McCryface too sometimes LOL!

Anubis, that's really interesting about how different you look on the inside and you've got fur and everything. Kind of cool! I look different on the inside too, but not that much. I'm just thinner and younger but it's still hard to be in a body that doesn't look like me and I don't like looking at the body on the outside cos it doesn't look like mine. What's it like for you to have a human body on the outside? (If you don't mind me asking?). Yeah, it would be good if we had at least some kind of superpower - LOL!

Hey CatCat,
Sorry if I confused you. I painted my wand and had to let it dry. While I was waiting I sewed Teddy bears together. I had sewn the heads and bodies together but still had to sew the arms and legs on.
I am trying to figure a way to get pictures of my crafts so you all can see them.
I got to go to group because the project was too hard for Angelina (she is 4) we made these essential oil with a roller ball to apply. We got to put gems in the bottle and they look so pretty and smell so good. This morning I had an idea while looking at a pattern for a chap stick holder for a keychain-I made my own pattern and it worked great. I can't wait to give them to my group.

Pammie

Hi Pammie,

Oh, I get it now! LOL! I was trying to imagine like a magic wand with teddy bear arms and legs and it seemed kind of weird It would be a pretty unique wand though! Like a teddy bear that had half managed to turn itself into a magic wand, but like wasn't quite good enough at magic You could make up a good story about it. Anyway, sewing arms and legs on actual teddy bears makes much more sense!
I'd really like to see pictures of all the stuff you've made if you can find a way to post it here!

Your group sounds fun too and the essential oil thingys sound cool. Is it a therapy group or just like a general group? Super cool that you and Angelina can go to group and do activities. K just goes in the front if we do anything like that, which is boring for the rest of us!

I'm doing ok. Still waiting for my mosaic stuff but it's coming tomorrow! Hope everyone else is doing ok too.

Cat.
