Sorry I gotta call out of work I have to go mourn the bestest little robot there ever was
Since we don’t know a lot to do with innerworlds, I focused on the communication part of today’s prompt for summer system education week.
I wanna share some resources I’ve found on system communication and journaling (which I’m a huge advocate for. Out of the many different ways we’ve tried to communicate, journaling has been the most helpful for us.) I also recently got a pre-set-up journal recommended by my therapist, and I’d like to share some of the things in there as well.
Ok, before getting into journaling, here are some general system communication resources I’ve found:
Internal Communication- The Core of Treatment for Dissociative Identity Disorder
Developing Internal Communication - Starting with the Basics
Reducing Amnesia - Developing Co-Consciousness
Integrating ‘new’ parts
Staying Organized with Dissociative Identity Disorder (talks about some different communication methods)
For journaling, my first source is about How to Journal for DID. I’d also like to note some tips:
In free journaling, make sure to put the date, time (if able), and name of the alter journaling. If you’re unsure who’s journaling, put who you might be, who you’re closest to, who you may feel like a mix of, or if you really can’t tell, just put Blurry (or Unknown, if applicable).
Try to write every day. Set a reminder for yourself on your phone or something if it will help, set aside some time to just write.
If you can’t think of anything to write, and prompts don’t help, just start writing. It can be anything, notes, activities, even drawings count. Also beginning to write makes it easier to continue and let ideas flow.
You can write to no one in particular or to the world, but you can also write to other alters. Some conversations can occur back and forth in your journal pages. Even if it takes a few days or weeks for the other alter to see your writing, it can still be helpful.
Read through your journal and re-read it from time to time. Are there entries you don’t remember? Or ones you vaguely remember but feel different reading them as you? You can also write responses to alters asking questions or writing to you.
If you want, feel free to mark out different section for different alters, or a section specifically for talking to others in the system, etc. You can mark them with small post-it notes or bookmarks, so you may know more easily where to look for certain information or notes.
Next I’m gonna share the sections of the journal I got, along with some resources to go with different sections (many are from did-sos.com, because man, it’s a great resource site). Some are relevant to multiple sections, but I’ll only write each one once. I’ll put these below a cut since this post is already turning out to be a little long.
