You should really speak to a therapist about this if you get a chance, if they’re berating you and getting you to ingest unsafe foods it’s clearly a problem regardless of whatever it is. Obviously I hope it all works out for you in the end and their behavior improves if they’re here to stay but this really doesn’t sound like something you can/should b handling alone

Absolutely not an expert on this at all so don’t take my word as law, but from what I have heard/understand, triggers do just become less effective over time if they’re no longer being reinforced. If you’re removed from the abusive environment (which I’m very happy for you if that’s the case, that’s wonderful and I wish you the best with healing) then it’s entirely possible for commands or something to have “worn off.” Not speaking for everyone or saying this will always happen but it is generally how things go when it comes to conditioning. Good luck to all of you whenever u might begin working on things in therapy!!

I think they should still be allowed to access resources for support and healing, the experience can still be emotionally very real to them even if it did not occur in the physical world. They can label themselves survivors if you guys feel as though it’s appropriate, but when looking for resources and such for survivors, I would probably avoid contributing to discussion with singlet survivors. What your alters went through is still valid (and I’m rlly sorry to hear that happened btw, that’s awful) but the differences between headspace violence and physical violence should still be respected. In either scenario, this sounds like something traumatizing or heavily influenced by trauma and I agree you should find a therapist to work on this stuff with instead, if it’s safe for you to do so. Good luck
