IFS in Random Thoughts

Here I am, naming/talking about my parts.

Fighter/helper/manager- right shoulder, made me feel happy like i was being taken care of, wanted to punch and push away

Manager- takes over in situations that people without ptsd/trauma might find overwhelming or ...... duh..... traumatic (example, when my house caught fire in 2019 and was burning down in the rainy February- i was calm, cool, collected, ready to take care of all business)

Manager- rosy glasses childhood- the one who ‘filters’ my memories and makes it easy for me to recall my childhood. Probably gatekeeper of memories

Baby- the tiny neonatal baby who can’t talk, who takes over when I need to communicate. She wants to keep me safe. Lower sternum/belly button

Internal Family Systems has been very a beneficial form of therapy for me. I ‘took to’ it pretty well. I hope it really helps me.
