I first became aware of another person in my head when I was around 12. I told no one for a few years and once I did I spent a lot of time in the mental health system not getting the correct treatment. I started having to look for answers myself, which involved lucid dreaming (becoming conscious in the dream state) to seek out alters and ask them questions about their creation, why they are here and how I can help them. It's allowed me to get closer to certain alters and has helped with a degree of integration. This is something I feel very passionately about and want to spread awareness of.
