With dissociative identity disorder (DID) that developed outside of SRA or mind control programming, parts tend to be able to hear each other much easier. They have a much less developed internal world without the bombs and traps that send survivors spiraling when set off. The front presenter part can still go for years without knowing they have parts inside, but once they realize it, building a relationship with those parts and helping them heal is much less complicated than for someone who was purposefully split to be used as a mind control slave.

For those who are SRA, it is more complicated, and the survivor will often have messy programming where there can be bleed through between parts and circumstances. One of the best things you could do if you experienced SRA is to work on the surface memories that you do remember before trying to work on the SRA memories. For example, you were bullied by a kid at school, and it happened because that kid was a bully and not because it was part of the SRA, then that would be a layer of trauma that you can work on and process so that it is out of the way before you start working on the harder things. It’s hard enough to process stuff without the bleed through of normal trauma memories compounding and/or adding confusion to the SRA memories. It’s my personal belief that most of these parts can hear you when you talk to them even if they don’t talk back. They need to know what is going on in the system so that they can do their job to keep the body “safe”. So, it makes sense to me that they would be observing and listening to ensure everything is still okay. Now, if they are out on the astral realm somewhere then they may not know what has been happening since they left the body, but for those parts that are awake and hiding inside the system, I think they can hear us.

Depending on what a survivor went through, they could have experienced only SRA (satanic ritual abuse) or they could have been entered into formal training for mind control programming. Often, it can be a mixture of both, especially if the child is born into a generational cult family. For me, I don’t even know what it was other than a hot mess. My programming seeps through sometimes and other parts get to share in the fallout of that pain and confusion until we can sort it out, then I have some cleaner splits where the programming was more purposeful torture with an agenda but without the SRA.

I’ve only met one survivor that I’m aware of that has super clean splits and her system does operate a lot differently than mine. Her healing has also looked different, but it always does to some degree for each person. Most of us will land somewhere in the middle with parts who experienced very clean mind control programming splits and then other parts who experienced the rituals and all that comes with the SRA side of things.

When a survivor is split in a more sophisticated lab setting where every single aspect is monitored such as their blood pressure, pain tolerance, how many times they blink, how shallow they breathe, and how close to death they are at any given moment, they end up with very clean splits. Programmers working on this level do not leave room for mistakes. The mind control is intricate, deep, and almost always undetectable. Many of these survivors are still “asleep” meaning their programming has not been activated yet and they do not know that they are a programmed multiple. Often these survivors will present as being healthy and able to function in day to day to life because the presenter part has no idea that they have horrific trauma hidden behind an amnesic wall. I think it is rare that the parts in these survivors’ systems can hear the host without some healing and understanding of what has happened to them. These systems have complete amnesic walls that are very solid.

No matter where you fit into the spectrum of being able to communicate with your parts, the goal is always the same. Asking questions, becoming curious, and seeking Yahweh for truth. When you’re ready, tell Him you want to know the truth so that you can be set free. Start asking Him to give you compassion and understanding for what your parts had to endure that led them to make the choices they made. Give Him permission to prepare you and your system to be able to handle what He reveals to you. Start praying for freedom and speaking life over yourself. Tell yourself that you can get out, you can seek freedom, there is hope in Yeshua, even when you don’t feel it.

Start building up your spirit by speaking life over yourself and your parts. “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.” – Ephesians 4:29

I don’t think we can know for sure who is listening inside at any given time until we are much farther along on the healing journey, but why waste a possible opportunity when wise words bring healing? “The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.” – Proverbs 12:18

Let your parts know that you are choosing to show up for them now. You now have the opportunity to be the hands and feet of Christ to them. Experiencing His love through your kindness to them can go a long way in softening their hearts and helping them see truth. “But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.” – Hebrews 3:13

They have carried the weight of trauma that is much too heavy for them for so long. It’s time to face our fears and invite Yeshua into those hidden places that we don’t want to see. It’s time to teach them that it was never theirs to carry alone and help them give it to Yeshua. “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way, you will fulfill the law of Christ.” – Galatians 6:2

I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to start communication with their parts, build up their spirit, and help their parts heal. Blessing Your Spirit by Arthur Burk and Sylvia Gunter.
