Daisy, I don't know how I could forget this, but there is one HUGE link for me.
My emotional self is very invested in knowing that I could kill myself if I wanted to. It all goes back to that time as a teen when my mother gave me the knife and more or less dared me to go through with my threats. I found that so humiliating that it's a major point of pride to my emotional self that I and my therapist realize that I'm not afraid to kill myself.
So that's a very definite ego state link.
