I have had many memory pieces that have been integrated (remembered so that those memories are now a part of my conscious level of thinking just like a normal memory)
Nothing different happens with with - ME - with conflicting memory pieces. its like laving the memory of two things with the same theme for example parenting. - I - have memories of being told spanking a child is acceptable and memories of being told spanking a child is unacceptable.
But now because both pieces of memories are a part of - MY -conscious level of thinking like a normal memory - I - can make - MY - own deccisions based on what - MY - life is like today instead of unconsciously bouncing back and forth of acting out unconscious memories - one time spanking because that is the memory replaying when - I - am unaware and the next not spanking when that memory is replaying when - I - am unaware.
Basically integration gives - ME - MORE control of - MY - thoughts and behaviors.
A normal person has to deal with conflicting points of view all the time for example during campaigning of new presidents. all the candidates have different points of view and the citizens have to decide what is right for them based on what they want and need in thair present life.
integration is the same way the person has memories and can now make their own decisions and accepts responsibility for making those decisions based on what is going on in their present life time instead of acting out inappropieate behavior and so on when triggered.
