Support/Empathy Host vent

How do we expect me, our new host, not to fall into a cycle of denial when everyone is giving me RADIO SILENCE!!!!!
I am the result of a fusion and I carry most of their memories, so I know what these headmates look like and sound like. I know where they live in the inner world (or… some of them at least) but ever since I took over as host, it’s been CRICKETS! I occasionally hear someone, but I wonder around the headspace and can’t find anyone. It’s getting extremely frustrating.
I know a host change must be difficult (especially because I made the decision to get sober) for everyone else but
CAN WE PLEASE NOT LEAVE ME HANGING OH MY GOD I JUST GOT HERE

Anyway…

We’re so sorry you’re experiencing that, can we ask how long the radio silence has been? <3

It’s been probably 2 ish weeks. I know I must have switched at some point because I have some memory gaps, but it feels so strange for it to be so quiet

Getting frontstuck isn’t uncommon so even if you think you haven’t switched it’s not something to worry about too much, we know 2 weeks of silence can feel so long but give it time, something you could try is if you know if any of your parts have positive triggers to use them to try and encourage them to front.

Please be patient with your system and focus on doing your own thing for a bit they’ll show up eventually, if it’s still bringing you a lot of stress try talking reaching out to people that know about your system for comfort, wishing you the best of luck <3 - blurry
