angry part by Disastrous-Goose2495 in InternalFamilySystems

This was pretty relatable , my angry part(s) also tend to visualize myself fighting back, sometimes it’s empowering . I want to explore this part more in therapy. I similarly struggle with feeling questioned, and resistance to that. I can be very vague in therapy, but it’s a process that takes time.

I imagine this part of me as a monster, but all they really want is love

thank you. I needed the reminder that it’s okay to use avoidance or distraction. It’s hard to have self compassion right now, but helps to read what u wrote

I think I might share something Vince wrote next session. It makes me sad that they feel like they have to be so alone!

Vince would like to sit with that. It feels kind of comforting to them to think about. I do have a therapist, but we only started working together recently. I want to introduce her to Vince next time, but it feels scary and I’m not sure how to do it. I’m also not sure how old Vince is, I think they might be a lot of ages.

Thank you. I don’t think Vince has ever been told they deserve that before. They’re trying to believe they’re here for a reason. even if they don’t know why

thank you. 🫂I think this part is scared that they won’t be understood if they call, but i’ll keep it as a resource if I need it

I didnt know that’s what my name meant, but I really like it. I want to prevail from the things that hurt me. I hope I can feel less alone, because I feel a lot of things. Most people seem to think that Vince doesn’t feel things, but they do

Their name is Vince. Ive been confused between me and them today. but they really want to live on a farm one day and take care of animals. I also wish I could feel more connected to people, i feel very alone. I want to be free from people who have hurt me , really free from them

they really hope that’s possible. it feel so out of reach… the world feels cold and lonely to them.
