Some of us have diminished and yet others integrated. Though not big groups- out of hundreds individuals just small groups about 3-5 people occassionally. It was needed for others of us to function better sometimes, just a group decision to help the individual from another group of personas that didn't feel so nice being around pool of multiple memories, if that makes sense. So it was more so of an uniting than integrating, but when those some of us were united for long enough (months), they stood that way, as an one. It wasn't problematic for them- for those who were having issues, they split up again.
But actually, there are those who prefer to have more people around (as Nat does) and who feel unhappy without them, those who are very nurturing to us... so we offer the chances. You have to be kind to yourself, don't you? At least that's what I've been taught.
We are better as a whole and as a system. We can stuck down to being minimum people, or sometimes even just one personality, but that is forcing some of us. We don't like forcing someone to do something- without exception that works for inner and outer lives, too. we don't envy the singlets in this way. I mean, don't they feel alone?
