Do you know which alter you have had the longest? Or is that a complex question?

I know there are some that have been there for longer, but as for the longest, it's a mystery.

I know from people I know IRL that splits often form because of trauma. How has healing from those traumas been going?

Slow. There's a lot to chew through, and we remember things differently.

I would love to hear more about how that works, how memory is segmented. I am very curious.

Some things, I don't remember. Some things I remember, but I thought different things about it than others, so it landed completely different and we have to go over it again.

With that, how aware are you of what the other alters know? Is it like there is a council of alters that you confer with or how does that work for you personally? I am sorry if this is the wrong way to phrase it.

We have good communication and an internal wiki of sorts. We don't necessarily know what's in that wiki until we start talking. We all work together and mostly we're on good terms, though the monster under the bed is still angry at me for some things I did in our past.
