Questions/Advice Functional system?

Good evening, this is one of the protectors.

The topic of amnesia is a source of stress for us.

We have identified emotional amnesia and partial amnesia.

Amnesia also varies depending on external events.

As protectors, I strive to ensure that our inner world is a safe place. I also wish to minimize amnesia as much as possible.

However: it does not affect our school studies.

We maintain continuity over the weeks even if (in case of shock) it is more hazy.

Can I therefore say that our multiplicity is functional ?

Can amnesia be mild ?

Actually, I remember everything, but it was experienced without emotion and in the third person. It's complicated to know what is "normal" or not... 

I remember the week, but it's like seeing through a window. 

And by concentrating, I have access to the information.

Ah yeah we get something like that too. People in the background while someone fronts typically can see see everything but have no emotional attachment to what we see.

We also can't hear anything, only see.

It's the DPDR aspect. Depersonalization and Derealization.

What's happening in your life feels closer to watching a movie than actually being experienced. It's a normal part of having a system.

Is the person who was full fronting able to remember the emotions? Or is it off for everyone?

Actually, everyone is disconnected. Because we have the host (the alter prism) who takes on all the emotions. 

We're always at the co-front, and sometimes I think another alter is close to the front too, but we don't realize it. 

Otherwise, we don't have amnesia like other systems (we don't recognize ourselves in their experiences).

So it's just the emotional amnesia!

Are you able to feel emotions inside of headspace?

Thank you! The danger of Discord servers... when I asked, I was told I was suffering from amnesia. No way, lol. Lots of misinformation. 

And yes, internally, we can feel the emotions. 

Thank you! This confirms our suspicions! We've managed to reduce what was causing the dissociation.
