DID and deep seated anger issues

I have dissociative amnesia, dissociative Identity disorder, and very deep rooted anger issues from my childhood trauma. I was starting to make progress...so I thought...in getting my alters to cooperate and help me stay stable (primary fronting identity identifies as female, 49, goes by K) and several others collectively known as the K system were keeping the others in check but today I had a setback. I woke up to my alarm at 4:15 and usually I can wake up ony own. I was groggy, half here and half elsewhere (semi-conscious). and had a co-conscious alter along for the ride ( negative female alter goes by K8). She is always putting me down or just nasty. I lost my temper and screamed at her to shut up. My anger was white hot and I was tired of her. Now she's leaving me be but she may be back.


Anyone else yell at their negative alters?

@spicedchailatte2022 I have yelled and cussed and threatened. The worst one I have is nasty to all of the others too and causes alot of trouble. She upsets the littles and starts fights. I've been trying to do better though and trying to be respectful with her and trying to get better communication going and a better understanding of why she does the things she does. Because in her way she's trying to protect us. She just needs to do it in a more constructive way. It's a work in progress 

But yeah she'll probably be back and she might come at you alittle harder because you yelled at her. What if you were to approach her first and apologize for yelling - would she be willing to talk with you if you asked her what she was so upset and yelling about?
