hi Kerria,
I'm at a loss to help b/c this is something I don't understand at all, since I don't have it, but I wish I could help!Would it be useful to start calling yourself "I" instead of "we" and trying to integrate the selves into one coherent person? I know it won't be as easy as doing a name change, but maybe identifying yourself as ONE would help you start thinking that way? I apologize if I'm way off or if I don't get it.
Could you pick one personality that suits you best and call that one "I" and start forcing the others to take more of a backseat role, kind of like spectators or advisors, but never the "real deal" personality?
Again, I don't know if that's possible or even sensible. I don't know much about DID.
I hope things get better. I hope you can trust your T!
I'm sorry if I missed it - can you say again what is your therapy goal? Do you feel your T is helping you get there so far?
take care!
