It's just a constant reminder of this condition that I just don't want to be bothered with it.

Ignore it and it will go away kind of thing.
Ignoring and thinking it will go away, scares the alter/s who drew them. They don't want to go away But, they don't need to go away, they need to be integrated into the whole you. Remind them that they are an important part of you. Some of them remember some good things "for you". Of course, some remember a lot of bad too. But those bad things are still part of you and made you who you are today. You would not be the strong, successful, survivor that you are without all of the things you've experienced.

Dissociation and switching were a valuable and necessary survival tool at one time.
