Ok like i have said before I have re-integrated. I had the whole MPD thing going on, split off fragments that became personalised. Integration isn't what it seemed to be in the books I read, it didn't fix my problmes. In some ways it made my problems more real, because they were mine to deal with. I am more a person now, or feel more of one, multi dimensional, able to feel and think in a wider range.
Like Andy I had a look at your lj journal and wanted to say, if you refuse to know about the life, the good the bad and the ugly then re-integration is not an option, even if you give lip service to it because you want to make other people happy the others will know, it will be like "fuck off" is tattooed on your forehead whenever you speak to them. As for your therapist saying you don't have to remember to integrate. Well I don't understand that. Are they all talking about reintegration or simply the killing off or locking up of people.
Anyway, for me re-integration was a positive experience, but not in the terms of skipping through the forest singing to the furry wee bunnies. In a lot of ways it made life harder, but only because living as a person in the world is a hard thing, worthwhile but hard and sometimes painful and sometimes joyous
