A recent post in Grace Uncensored spoke of the cigarette and/or cigar burns that occur as body memories and have never stopped throughout my healing. I recall having painful "sores" before memories. I just didn't tell anyone I had a problem I couldn't explain. My therapist and I agreed to work on undoing any residual programming in case the burns are the result of a kind of self-harm conditioning. That would mean an alter or alters are creating whatever chemical responses in my body are necessary to cause the painful blisters that always are in my genital area.
Last night I felt a blister begin in a very painful spot. I'm angry today that I haven't been able to stop this before now. With all the collages, I wondered what would happen if I just started putting pictures of cigarettes and cigars on a blank collage page. Not that anyone needs to understand the meaning of everything, but I was able to see the alter who is responsible for the burns or who has the answer to stop it. The burning of my very sensitive orifices began shortly after I was born, if not immediately after my birth. It may have been the first consistent trauma (painful sensation) to cause a split.
I couldn't get the answer by asking inside, but those with the answers in fused me were able to show me who was responsible for my distress and much more with art therapy. I'm still in awe of the synchronicity of finding Polyvore website so soon after the fusion but before the new brain connections began to overflow.
Clearly, you can see from the collage, it was not okay to be a girl.

Hi Grace,
Been reading your blog for ages now. Just want to say how brilliant it is. Its better than any book on abuse/dissociation ive ever read.
You really should write a book !
All the best, simon
Hi Simon! Thanks for your lovely comments. I would like to write a book and my blogs are the beginning of that thought. You can see by the number of blogs how difficult it is to focus on one aspect of what happened to us. Maybe a series of books. ;-)
Hi Grace, I hope you do!!! Yes more than 1 book! But put them on special offer to your readers ;-)
Your writing deserves a bigger audience!!
Take care, Simon.
