Key ideas in Complex System Dynamics: DID and OSDD

  • Trauma holders sequester somatic leakage
  • ANP functioning is contingent on containment
  • System destabilization and barrier thinning
  • The functional relationship between trauma holders and the ANP
  • Stasis prevents realization
  • Lack of time-stamp as defense
  • The protective nature of 'stuck in time' stasis
  • Non-trauma holders lack structural insulation
  • Functional relationship between trauma holders and ANP
  • Internal vicarious trauma risks
  • Gatekeeper regulatory role
  • Protective nature of stasis
  • Regulation of information flow
  • Narrative memory is often held by ANPs as a 'story' stripped of its physiological impact
  • Identifying the risks of internal vicarious trauma
  • Trauma holders store 'B-type' memory: fragmented, non-linear sensory snapshots (smell, heat, pressure)
