Umm... Hi! What's a system?

MATT'S HOME!!!!!

Humm... Leave her written notes where she can see them, telling her to look around, to realize she is in a safe place. Try feeling safe, and transmitting the feeling everywhere in your body. Address her out loud, telling her that she's in a safe place, that you're with her, that she's not alone, that no one can harm her now.

Hmm... The problem is that that's the first time I've ever had that sort of contact with her so I do not know what will calm her down. As far as leaving a note goes I honestly wouldnt know where to put it... Now that I think about it I can put one up on the inside just to make sure that everyone knows.

Thanks Sea!

The computer screen, bathroom mirror, room door, your pocket?

With time, you'll know more about her.

Have a nice night.

Josi wanted to say goodnight before she fell asleep but she fell asleep before she could.

So she says goodnight.

And thanks for the suggestions. I ended up putting some pictures of Matt and Jay Jay and a note saying that we are all safe and no one can harm us on a wall on the inside since I wasnt sure that everyone would see it on the outside.

And with that, I say goodnight as well. I am exhausted. I shall talk to you tomorrow. Sleep well and sweet safe dreams to all.

Great idea!! Rest well.

Hi Josi,

Welcome to the forum. We're glad you came out to talk to us.

Iain

Hi Josi,

Welcome to the forum. We're glad you came out to talk to us.

Iain

Hi! Thanks! I like coming out here cuz its the only way to talk to people. Protector(She means me) says that I cant just go out like I used to when I was a kid cuz no one would understand but on her I can still be me and no one think Big Josi was crazy.

How do you say your name and how old are you?

Hi Josi,

I'm Iain -- like e ann -- I'm a teen alter and I'm out on the forum a lot. It's a good place with nice people to talk to. I'm glad you are here and I like hearing from your protector too. Host says we can be out here as long as we stay safe. We can't talk about where we are or things about Host that are too personal. Also Host reads our posts which is a real pain but that's just to keep us safe.

Hi Protector. I don't want to leave you out. You're important. We have protectors too and they are always taking care of us.

Talk to you later.

Iain

Oooo... I like your name. I've never seen it spelled like that though. I've only seen it spelled like Ian. I like your spelling better. Host or Protector will read mine. I wanna stay safe and keep posting on here so I try to make sure I'm not saying something bad. And both Big Josi and Protector are big on privacy so I know how your host feels.

Hello Iain. How are you? I read that you and the rest of your system was going through a bit of a rough patch. I hope things get sorted out and that you guys can still be around for a long while to come.

Hi,

Thanks for writing back. Yeah our heart's sick so the body feels pretty bad. We have to go to lots of doctors and do lots of tests - YUK!!!!! Our Protectors are having a BIG problem because they want to punch the nurses when they come with needles but Host won't let them. We are still working together as a team though. We'll get through this.

Protector/Teenager do you ever get like that where you want to punch someone but its not a good idea because it will just make things worse? What do you do?

Boy do I feel you on the needles. Someone on the inside would rather take the needle and throw it out the friggin window, but it's what's inside the needles that's keeping my son alive. Of course he'd survive on the outs now, but I would like him to grow inside my tummy for a while longer.

I/We really hope your heart gets better soon, its no fun when you're feeling crappy.

I am not the right person to ask actually. I do not feel. I have emotions but do not have proper access to them. The better person to ask is Jay Jay herself.

And my answer is yes. I feel like that plenty of times. I usually do something to distract myself, like facepalming (I do it alot) or if I'm in my room I just punch a pillow instead. If I do end up hitting other objects (say a wall for example) I do it with my hand open and hit it with my palm so I dont break anything. If it helps try to bring a tennis ball with you and bounce it when you feel the need to punch someone. I've done it and I have to say it works wonders.
