Talk:Self-Programming

Well, I consider there is opportunity of enforcing programs (and sometimes scripts) on parogens, since once you start to create headmates, they are heavily based on your induction at first, especially before they gain their own full-consciousness and personalities. I'm just not sure how many people would do this since the risks (such as leading to irrecoverable trauma to headmates) are obvious. -Reverberation Syndicate

I agree, but I think that's a different concept to MC-based programming. Internally forcing or constructing headmates and TBMC work by different processes, and I think it's important to keep that clear. The discussion on how to handle the topic is somewhat ongoing... - Flexacone

Maybe it's just about when it comes to influence, whether exotrauma and/or intratrauma can somewhat be equavalent to trauma in the shared reality. But the persuasion/enforcement part is similiar. ps: In our case, we (the system/body) were continuously threatened and persuaded by one of my parents that "being constricted is the only way for us to become an academic because we do not have the ability of independent learning" since elementary school (even now we will graduate from university soon), leading to a guy who enjoys forcing others appeared in the system. On the contrary, one of the headmates (already ego dead) once traumatized his soulbond during creation by deliberately "suggesting" her that someone important to her is killed in the presence of her (an exomemory was inplanted as well at the same time) and then inducing her to become paranoid to others. Therefore I consider there might be something in common between internally scripting headmate and TBMC in my point of view. -Reverberation Syndicate

TBMC stands for trauma/torture-based mind control. It is implanting things or suggesting things while applying the stimuli that is painful and or harmful through the body. It is conditioning turned up to the extreme. Think Pavlov, but literal torture. It is getting a child to dissociate to the point that you can start implementing things in their mind that go against their well-being. Your experience is valid, but I do not think the word programming might be the best one here. The first example you gave sounds to me like an enforcer. Which are common throughout programming, but not the same thing as something like an internal program controller, internal reprogrammer, or Internal handler. I don’t want to talk about how exactly Scrip are put in to a kid, but it’s it’s not exactly the same. We have to be very clear with programming and Ramcoa of subjects. Your experience is valid, but we have to be very precise in our wording, and make sure we are choosing the very right words. As I remember reading the first edition of this page and ending up something and getting queued, it’s not your fault it’s just how we word things. We have to be very careful with it so not to get anything confused. -Overbythefishtank
