my therapist does IFS therapy which is kind of identifying different roles in the brain and different parts of ourself, in order to get the parts in balance better. Sometimes I feel kinda silly because I give mine characterization just to make them clearer. I have likely written about the parts before.
One part I'd like to give a little credit to is my inner MC. I'm just this morning thinking how powerful and useful that sucker is. Mostly it came about as a way to defuse tense situations. The other thing it can do is Fight Depression. It takes actual work to stay out of depression as you may know, and this is my powerful little inner character who can seem like a flaky cheerleader, but is also more of a mastermind. I guess at its worst it's sneaky and manipulative, but is often very useful at "Work Events" or when meeting strangers, and again, she takes the reins when I'm starting to feel hopeless.
Anyway, just a little credit to her this morning, because she works hard.
