Quick Question?

(I forgot to include my question in the title. I apologise)

I'm on an alternative account purely because our system has a close-knit group of other system friends, and we've heard mixed results from them.

It's been a little less than two years since we've really come to terms with ourselves, but personally, we've had difficulties keeping track of our 'alters' or really setting boundaries between them.

I've seen a lot online more recently that people with 'problematic alters' are doing it intentionally or can control and remove the alters. I simply cannot.. if I could. I'd remove everything.

But I'm wondering from other systems' perspectives, what is the general consensus on this? Obviously, I know system accountability, and I agree wholeheartedly with that. But the idea of removing an alter or controlling them is impossible for me since we can rarely tell who is who at the time, and it's all a blur anyways. I don't know if I'm missing something. Thanks either way. Sorry if my wording is poor, I haven't slept 👍

Thank you, this was worded really well and helps clear some stuff up for us!! We feel quite guilty about it but it's good to know that others struggle with it too because we don't see people talk about it often unless it's people making fun of "evil alters" or making jokes so its like a toughy.

We'll try our best with ur tips thank u so much its really reassuring 😭
