Did Alters

She doesn’t get triggered too much anymore, She’d put all her worries to bed, When she figured each nuance of folks she lived with, After meeting them all up in her head, There was a small cranky lady, all stubborn and stern, With tied back, frazzled wispy old hair, And a small little boy, all innocent and nice, Who had a favourite little brown teddy bear, And each personality had their own style of art, From pop, to cube, to nouveau, And one liked the speed of the fastest race car, Whilst another liked going real slow, But the most amazing thing she saw in her mind, The thing that made each one unique, Was when she watched every dream they had every night, When all of her alts were asleep.

Impressive how you managed to keep that one together. Your side of ditch needs some more of that we all do. I was ece teacher for 30 years, we are debating what to do with centres which are breeding grounds for bugs of all kinds at best of times.Will know tomorrow if they will stay shut here. I pray they do. best regards David in NZ

Hi Dave, im fascinated with ppl with split personality for now, i taught for 20 yrs before giving it away, im concerned about the study authorities are basing their reasoning for kids to go back on.... has not been peer reviewed, and its based on schools where bugger all kids were attending. Good luck my friend.

Ooh. Lewis, I do like the way you try on other's shoes. Multiple personalities is as heartwrenching as it is fascinating. The way our brains work (or not) to protect us. Great write! Bunny hugs and hope you, yours, and your land are well. xomo

I have joined a couple PCS/TBI groups; I have been alone with my brain for so long. FB has been a game changer for so many I am sure.

and your right, the more we learn about the brain the less we know, our brains are crazy things
