Re: Regarding terminology

You mentioned a difference between inside people that come from splits off a core identity and other people. Please elaborate....

Hey, just a word from us. The way we run, is that Ruth is the main front most of the time, but Amariyah and Anachronis post sometimes.

We feel that Ruth and Amariyah have always been in this system. Amariyah hasn't often been the active fronter for any long period of time, but she has always been around, for as long as memory stretches back. Ruth wasn't aware of her for a long time, not consciously(we think this was a protective set-up, to avoid persecution at home or school for 'unusual' behaviour), but when Amariyah evidenced to her, she was able to remember and connect many incidences of Marie being there and helping her. Marie isn't a split, but a seperate being that has been there since the beginningtime.

We haven't had the experiences of 'losing time' that many do. Any co-running or co-fronting that happens, Ruth generally still controls motor functions, but Marie or Ana will be relaying their wishes for the body to her, so there's a miniscule lag on reactions.

We're not sure when Ana came to us, as she is mostly amnesiac of her previous life. She's pretty quiet, but when she wishes to talk, she will often 'nudge' Ruth to write her opinions down. The few times she has co-fronted, she has felt the body way too 'big' for her, compared to what she had before.

There are others here, but they rarely talk or come close to the front.
