I was diagnosed DDNOS in my late 20s or early thirties and I dont know why because I dont remember any of it. The only records I have because it has been 7 years are my therapist nows records and my old therapist. I do not study languages online because I long time ago I had breifly looked into that and realized I wasnt smart enough to learn them. How can integration be in progress when I am not working on that? Also I do not lose time. Thats why diagnosis is low spectrum DID.

your question ... how can integration be in progress...
in 2013 many definitions and diagnostics got changed around the world. integration is one of those things. its not like you see in the movies and books and youtube videos.
its now the the normal process that the brain does using all your thoughts, behaviors and senses, putting them together in order for the human body to work and think and do things
a person who's brain is not taking in anything by way of their senses (taste, smell, touch, sight, hearing, ) and not moving, thinking or putting together what is going on inside their body and outside their body is not doing the integration process meaning they are either brain dead or in a vegitative/ coma where their brain is barely registering anything, not dreams, not thoughts, not moving, not feeling anything when the medical doctors do their needle tests,, you name it.
since you are here typing your post your brain is doing the integration process...
lets see what things it had to put together in order for you to write your post....
your thoughts of going on your computer.
your walking to your computer
your sitting down at your computer
your turning on your computer
your thinking about what words you wanted to write
your looking at the letters on the keyboard and picking out the letters you wanted to type, which in turn your brain put together into words then your brain put those words together into sentences......
after you wrote your post you had to move the arrrow to the submit reply and click it....
now look at all that you had to naturally integrate in order to make your post... what would have happened if your brain was not doing the integration process....
you wouldnt have made that post to begin with.
like I say many times before... theres more to having a mental disorder then just what you read online, in books or see in the movies. none explains this stuff that only treatment providers know about...
my suggestion is talk with your treatment providers. they are the ones that diagnosed you OSDD. they can explain to you what integration is for OSDD...
for me its going to therapy, talking with my therapist, noticing what my problems are, talking about my problems and then coming up with solutions to those problems. if I wasnt doing this integration process I would not be in therapy, would not be posting on line about my problems, would not even know I had these problems that now add up to OSDD macropsia and others,
