Our gatekeeper, known as X.

It doesn't work like that. We can't choose to have those memories. They get assigned. I was assigned to be an ANP, or Apparently Normal Part, as opposed to an Emotional Part. I could not perform my role, which is to calm us down particularly in the event of being triggered, correctly if I...

I personally am not a trauma holder and actually have very little knowledge of the traumas we have suffered.

It's an imaginary space because it isn't technically real. It's in our head. Just like if you had a "happy place" or something that you imagined, only it is extremely vivid and feels very real to us. It's more metaphorical and vague than the external world, but to us it feels completely real...

Hello friends :) My name is Ava, and I am a member of what's known as a Dissociative Identity Disorder system. This means I am one of multiple people, known as alters, who exist within this body. This can only occur when a child experiences ongoing and extreme trauma, and the brain fragments...
