Self-Programming

undefined:

Self-programming is a process similar to programming, but induced mostly or even completely by oneself.

Some common self-programming examples include:


 * A situation where trauma-induced dissociation already exists, and self-programming is considered a kind of strategy against adversity by the victims, leading to system formation. Self-programmers may or may not know what a system is.
 * Developing/experiencing exotrauma or trauma-induced dissociation, caused or created by parogenic system hosts (such as tulpamancers or soulbonders) during thoughtforming. (Note: Acts of this kind are regarded as abusive in the tulpamancy community.)
 * Someone deliberately letting others program them as a form of self-harm.

History
There is some debate as to whether programming can be done by oneself, as opposed to maintaining and upholding existing programs. This is due to the mechanisms by which programming is realised.
