You won't merge into anything, you will become nothing. No rest, no respite, nothing. Your body might "merge", but that's irrelevant.
Your consciousness - who you are - will end, truly, once and for all. You will never again experience hopes, dreams, memories, or love. You won't experience anything at all for the rest of eternity.

As far as we understand, consciousness is an emergent phenomenon based off of your neural activity. We can state with certainty that your consciousness ends when your brain does.
