Many of my Observing EP are very robotic and unemotional. That does not mean they are not EP. An alter does not have to be emotional to hold emotional trauma memory.

ANP usually does not hold any trauma memory and is phobic of trauma memory.

We have a "definite" answer for 10 people in our system. That leaves about 20 to try to figure out :lol:

I think what confuses us the most are those that started out as obvious ep's but then over time evolved and can now host just fine and have a normal emotional life - though still holding trauma memories, obviously.

ep turned anp?
anp with ep tendencies?
ep with anp tendencies?

I keep reading about this but I keep falling off at some point :P I don't even know what I, myself, am :P I'm a protector, but I guess most wouldn't call the very protective protector's ANP? Considering we tend to hold some abuse memories or at least can be highly emotional? I dunno. Trying to make sense :P
