Are you afraid your alters will come back?

Dear Taylor,

No, I’m not afraid of my alters coming back. I admit, since my alters integrated, there were times I wished a few of them would come back, but that never happened. My integration was a success and I am dealing with reality on my own, as one woman, the best way I can. My integration merged all seventeen alters into me. All of my alters are a part of my every day life, just not in their old individual forms. Each alter was one fragmented part of me, and now I am one woman with a variety of interests. Besides, there is no reason for my alters to come back. I am no longer an abused child. I am an adult now and have gained the knowledge I needed to help myself.

Thank you for your question.

Karen
