Dear K3,<\/span><\/p>\n
I believe you can do whatever you want to do, including write your own story. \u00a0Keep writing and one day all those journals and written words will start forming into a book. When you are ready, and feel that you can move forward, it will happen. \u00a0Writing a book takes time and patience and many years of writing. \u00a0It’s hard work but very healing.\u00a0Sounds like you have much to write about. \u00a0I would begin today. \u00a0Allow your thoughts to flow, worry about the details later.<\/span><\/p>\n
I write everyday. \u00a0Some days I may have a few posted notes with words scribbled on them to trigger a thought or memory that I can go back\u00a0and write about\u00a0at a later time. Usually\u00a0my written\u00a0words trigger what I want to write about and that works for me. \u00a0It’s important to keep it up. <\/span><\/p>\n
Being a multiple, as I once was,\u00a0is an asset. \u00a0We never forget a memory or anything said; all is simply fragmented until integration. \u00a0As in a puzzle with many pieces that will fit together form one whole beautiful piece. \u00a0Save each note written by your alters. \u00a0Don’t look back and try to analyze anything you have written at this time,\u00a0just simply keep writing. <\/span><\/p>\n
During my years of therapy, writing saved my life. \u00a0I would vent on paper, never\u00a0reading what I had written. \u00a0I put my pages in an envelope, stamped it\u00a0and mailed it off to Dr. Baer. \u00a0I’d feel relieved, as if I just sent my pain away. \u00a0I also journaled everyday. \u00a0So keep on writing all those horrible thoughts, mixed feelings, and blessings. \u00a0I believe writing will\u00a0help with your healing.<\/span><\/p>\n
Wishing you all my best, and looking forward to hearing more as you write your story.<\/span><\/p>\n
