my alters all integrated, not through EMDR. for me integration was a natural process where as they were no longer needed to do their job, purpose, reason for being they merged together with me to become one whole person again....

heres how it happened with me....

i was born to my parents (one whole person) then before the age of 5 I underwent extreme abuse that my under 5 year mind was unable to handle. My mind dissociated (created Alternate personalities) to handle what I could not at such a young age.they each had their own jobs, purposes, reasons for being to handle what I could not handle meaning they took care of anything that caused me to dissociate (feel numb, spaced out, disconnected.......) what caused me to dissociate (feel numb, spaced out, disconnected) is called a trigger like anxiety, stress, and many other triggers both positive and negative triggers. Each time I dissociated an alter who's job, purpose reason for being was to handle that situation/trigger would take over to do their job, purpose reason for being. then trough many years of therapy I learned how to handle those things that caused me to have my dissociative symptoms. since the alters were no longer needed to do those things for me they just merged together with me back into one whole person again...

now that I am one whole person again i now have full control over my emotions, what I do, what I say.....everything that was the alters became me. my life is much calmer, predictable, stable.
