It will not be the adult side of you that cannot tolerate it. It will usually be the child parts that feel very strongly. Unless the adult side has been traumatized in adulthood that is, in which case that would mean your T needs to work on strengthening the adult first before attempting 'parts' work again.
It can be a long road but definitely worth doing. More 'parts' work needs to be done.
As for your question on blending/staying separate, it really is up to you on how far you want to go. In my opinion you can live a perfectly good life still being separate. Furthermore parts of self do heal at different rates, infact it would be quite impossible for them all to heal at the same rate.
