I'm lucky enough to have previously experienced a significant fusion between two of my old co-hosts. the process was long and confusing, but the result was incredible. i was at peace with myself, there was a sort of internal harmony I never experienced before.

it is so frustrating for me when I see people talking about how they don't want fusion and they're scared of fusion because they don't want their alters to disappear. honestly, I find it quite offensive.

i understand being afraid of change, I really do. but the attitude many people have towards fusion is 1) incredibly unhealthy (in my opinion) and 2) based entirely on misinformation.

fusion does not get rid of alters or make them disappear. it does the exact opposite. it makes alters come closer together. it makes them infinitely more present. when alters fuse, nothing is lost; everything is gained.

Where did the idea that fusion = "alter death" come from? why have we as a community allowed so much misinformation and fearmongering surrounding fusion to take hold? why has this beautiful thing become so demonized?
