In dissociative identity disorder (DID), communication between alters (alternate personalities) is the key to a person’s well-being.

With DID, a person may have one or many alters, all working together to form the whole of who the person is. I have formed a couple of ways of working with my alters to create communication within dissociative identity disorder between alters. How Can I Increase Communication Between Alters in DID? One powerful way that I have created communication within dissociative identity disorder, is to create a “mediator” alter.

Cognitive Bias, Distortions & Logical Fallacies. CONFLICTS WITH OURSELVES: LESSONS FROM CHARLIE BROWN. Lately, we have been focusing largely on conflicts that deal with one person having a conflict with another person.

CONFLICTS WITH OURSELVES: LESSONS FROM CHARLIE BROWN

We call these interpersonal conflicts. Today we begin to turn our attention to intrapersonal conflicts. This type of conflict occurs when a person has a conflict with himself or herself. We can see both of these types of conflicts occurring in the following Peanuts comic. If you will, see if you can identify them. The intrapersonal conflict is within Charlie Brown. The letters of the word, “DIG,” helps to remind us that when we want to describe a conflict in some situation, it is helpful to first dig to find the DESIRE, then something that INTERFERES with the desire, and, finally, the GUILT. Charlie Brown seems to desire that he not yell at his baby sister, but the fact that he did has led him to perceive that, interfering with his desire, he is likely to continue his yelling at his sister in the future.

In this next comic, again Charlie Brown has an intrapersonal conflict. Mind Control/Consciousness. Population Control and Mind Control. MKULTRA, JASON, Mind Control.

Flow (psychology)

In positive psychology, flow, also known colloquially as being in the zone, is the mental state of operation in which a person performing an activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is characterized by complete absorption in what one does, and a resulting loss in one's sense of space and time. Flow shares many characteristics with hyperfocus. However, hyperfocus is not always described in a positive light.

Some examples include spending "too much" time playing video games or getting side-tracked and pleasurably absorbed by one aspect of an assignment or task to the detriment of the overall assignment. Just as with the conditions listed above, these conditions can be independent of one another. Ideas similar to flow have been recognized throughout history and across cultures.
