I don't think she did it for that but it's REALLY funny

This term came to me in a dream, so the oddness of it is because of that

Also CW for mentions of: RAMCOA and programming, conditioning, manipulation, "system hacking", and general psychological abuse. Also I could see this being a possible paranoia trigger for some.

So I few nights ago I have a dream that I was scrolling through tumblr(real fun and exciting dream, I know/s) and a found a post making a system term. The term doesn't exist, at least not as it was in the dream. I thought it was interesting and possibly useful label, so I decided to make it real.

The label was "Saw System" and this is what the flag looked like in the dream. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to explain it but. It was basically a umbrella term for systems that initially thought their system formed autonomously/has autonomously developed system functions, but later realized that the system was programmed, conditioned, coerced, or otherwise externally shaped.

This term can also be used by systems that formed autonomously, but were later "hijacked" as a form of psychological abuse. This is kinda a just general word for realizing that there might a reason the narrative of "the system is there to protect you" doesn't feel like it's fully true for your system.

Autonomously formed systems refer to system that without external coaxing. This is NOT to say that nothing cause they to form, but rather they form as a "organic" response and/or coping mechanism to outside events and traumas. As apposed to systems that's formation were cause and guided for the benefit of an outside person or people. The internal structures of autonomous systems tend to all be developed by the brain as a way of protecting the system, there may still be persecutors and dangerous elements of the inner world, but they formed without the coercion of an outside person or group

In the dream, term Saw System was after the film franchise. Because the movie often end with a montage revealing how seemingly disconnected were all part of a larger plan. Alternative names could be "Jigsaw System", "Puzzled System", or "Cultivated System",

Also before ask, yes this term does technically apply to us, no I'm not gonna say more about that on this post.

So I made my own versions of the flag from the dream, they're just the different Complex Dissociative Disorder(CDD) flags, but with puzzle pieces being removed and color shifted version underneath. This is to represent both puzzling out what has been done, and hope to be able to undo harmful internal structures that were put in place.

These three are general CDD flags: X X X

Dissociative Identity Disorder(DID) versions

Flags: X X

(Technically the white, orange, and black flag was made to a general system flag, but now it is more used as a DID specific flag)

Highly Complex Dissociative Identity Disorder/Externally Controlled Dissociative Identity Disorder/Programmed Dissociative Identity Disorder(HC-DID/EC-DID/PR-DID), I feel like this is kinda obvious, but if weren't programmed do not use this flag specifically. Just because a system was coerced into forming does NOT inherently mean they were programmed.

Flag: X

Other Specified Dissociate Disorder(OSDD). A general OSDD flag and the OSDD-1 flag

Flags: X X

Other Specified Dissociate Disorder(OSDD) -1A and -1b

Flags: X X

Unspecified Dissociate Disorder(U(s)DD) system

Flag: X

Partial Dissociative Identity Disorder(P-DID)

Flag: X X

As I read more of Stormlight, I find it increasingly funnier that, at the beginning, I did not like Shallan. She just didn't draw me in at first. But now literally she is just me frfr

My alters keep having a contest of trying to match themselves to Shallan's abd it's hilarious 😭
