I don't think taking medication would make tyler go away like that's not really how dissociative identity disorder works (you can find from the most basic google search that meds don't prevent DID but many people with DID take meds to help with depression or anxiety). I think the narrator needs tyler to a certain extent, that beyond the obvious homoeroticism tyler is a coping mechanism/shield that will return when the narrator needs him most. Perhaps he will be different, but perhaps the narrator too will be different

#fight club #mind you i do not have DID this is just based on what my friends with DID have told me abt their experiencws #i think it is also worth pointing out that with DID there aren't “real” v. “fake” personalities it's more like a cracked plate #with each alter being a shard of the wholw #hence why i think the part in the original script tht was cut where tyler is like #“we're both real”#is so good #also his repeated iterations that the narrator needs him #the rebuttal that maybe the narrator is his bad dream #anyway much to think about
