This blog is to help navigate pieces of myself. I've struggled for 10 yrs in therapy for numerous "disorders." I've found an intuitive approach to myself in a technique called the Internal Family System Model. Under no circumstances do I claim to be a therapist or provide internet therapy. This blog is for me and my "parts" to speak, express and gather feedback / validation. I no longer want to burden other people but need a place to release. I hope you find help or comfort in my experiences.

Little Ones
My little ones are so important to me. They have endured such pain with their young understanding. I feel sorry for them regularly and I appreciate their care givers often. In my system these care givers are a mixture of protectors and firefighters. Every now and then the managers even provide resources to them.
The system was designed in service of The Little Ones and other Exiles. Everything we do is to help, protect, comfort and entertain them. I love them DEARLY.
Little Ones and Exiles, please hear me. I love you all! I will never leave you. I never WANT to leave you. Sometimes I need a little space though. I have other things I must do in the day and week so we can continue to stay together. You are ALL SOOOOOO important.
I NEED your information but I need you to keep hold of it for a few more days. I KNOW how hard that is to do. You shouldn't have to hold on to it EVER. I would like to give you some help if I can. The Monster, The Historian and both Protectors have offered to help carry the load. If you want to temporarily give some of the information to them, they have promised to give it back when we need it and have time to review it with our Therapist's help. She can help and she is dedicated to do so. She said she wouldn't leave us even though other people have.
Would you like to share a few things with them now?
(They transferred a few pieces of the heavy load. Not everything of any single issue but enough to feel lighter.)
Now, let's take a small restful nap before the holidays get too busy with people, energy, traditions, food and requirements. It's okay, just focus on the good in it all. We enjoy Christmas and family. I'm here and if things get "sketchy" we have PLENTY of options. I am an adult now and able to make my own decisions.
Sweet dreams! :)
