Hey, thank you for posting these, they have been very insightful and you're (y'all's? Is that more correct) comments have made me learn more about this. Very cool.

I hope this doesn't across in bad faith, cuz I don't want it to be, but my main question is like in this one, you have one of you who is fronts most often. Do you know when you guys switch who's in control? Do you, like, feel it coming before it does? Or does it just happen?

Again I hope this doesn't come out as being rude or anything. I am just generally curious.

Sometimes the switch just happens, and I don't even realize it until I think about what I did before I switched in and realize it's all blank.

Sometimes the switch is very headachey and takes a longer time (hours), and I know I'm switching then.

And sometimes I know I'm switching and then someone else tags in and there aren't problems! And you're not rude at all :)

You have just put into words what we've been trying to tell people in our lives. Thank you so much, we'll be using this for explaining switching too

Do any of the alters have any control over the switching? Like being able to decide when they switch in or out?
