For anyone here who has alters (or whatever you feel comfortable calling them) and has had one (or more) integrate, what does the integration feel like? A weird sensation of someone suddenly disappearing? Is there a sense of loss and grief?

I had teenagers merge withone another...and i felt calmer, and later had a little one kinda disappear. ( they had made an announcment that they were all going into sleeping pods) the merged teenagers and the little one i have not had around for 4 years now. Not sure if the sleeping pods are even around as I do not sense or see them. The little one was hyper and i often felt extrememly tired with her around. i did feel like they were gone and did not mention much about them, however the little one played iwth my son a lot and he misses her and that made me sad though he understands she is a part of me but i cant seem to tap into her regardless of they "dont go away" Just my expereinces

I did feel a bit of a sense of loss and grief sometimes that I couldn't quite put my finger on. It took awhile to realize why though. Im sure integration is and can be different for each person. |

I have had a couple of alters integrate, and I didn't feel a sense of loss or grief. At the time it just felt "right". The two alters had been becoming increasingly coconscious for a while and we no longer needed them as separate alters. We remember who they were and honor them for all they did for us. There is a sadness about it too, but I wouldn't describe it as intensely as "grief". It was just right

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
