Hi Karen!<\/span><\/p>\n
I was so moved by your story – thank you for sharing it with the world! I was curious to hear about whether or not you are still able to tell distinctly between the memories of different alters, and whether you can sense the way Holdon, for example, might still be associated with driving or Katherine with organizing your calendar?<\/span><\/p>\n
Best wishes,<\/span><\/p>\n

Dear Nabil,<\/span><\/p>\n
Sometimes I can tell there are differences in me but not in the same way as when my alters were active. I can’t explain it other than I can tell something is a bit different in the way I react to certain things. I may experience a trigger of some kind that reminds me of an alter, but I can’t attach any particular thought or feeling to one of my ex-alters. I wish I understood these moments. <\/span><\/p>\n
For example, when I drive I may think of Holdon, but no longer feel like Holdon. When I organize something, I may think of Katherine, but never feel like I am Katherine. It doesn’t happen often, but I do at times sense a conflict between my wants and needs, but I suppose everyone feels that sometimes. \u00a0I used to feel it as a conflict between alters. Though the feeling will pass just as quickly as it appeared, it can frighten me and I wonder if I’m okay. I try to ignore the feeling knowing it’s temporary and remember with confidence that I am integrated.<\/span><\/p>\n
