INTERNAL NOTICE

Approved for General Distribution

Document ID: IN-PR-044
Current Version: 3.7.2

This notice is issued to confirm that current operating conditions remain acceptable.

Ongoing review indicates a widening gap between expressed values and observable behavior among individuals. This gap does not require correction. It supports continuity.

All individuals, including the reader, are now expected to function across multiple internal states simultaneously.

One state responds.
One state proceeds.
One state observes.
One state maintains normalcy.

These states are not in conflict. They are coordinated.

External commentary has applied clinical language to describe this arrangement, including references to schizophrenia. This characterization is incorrect. There is no loss of reality. The condition is more accurately understood as cognitive compartmentalization — a functional separation of belief, behavior, and responsibility that allows continued operation without integration.

However, reality is no longer required to be shared.

At this time, reality may be defined individually, according to what is felt, believed, or preferred. Contradictions between realities do not require resolution. Coexistence is sufficient.

Common behaviors associated with this structure include:

• Stating concern without altering conduct
• Acknowledging harm without interrupting routine
• Holding firm opinions without accepting consequence
• Remaining informed without becoming involved

These behaviors indicate successful adaptation.

Efforts to integrate internal states have been shown to reduce efficiency and increase distress. Integration is therefore not recommended. Segmentation allows forward movement with minimal disruption.

Individuals should continue to:

• Remain aware without assuming responsibility
• Express views without claiming agency
• Observe outcomes without identifying as participants
• Use language that preserves distance

Temporary sensations of pressure, tension, or excess may occur. These do not indicate malfunction. No action is required. Redirection of attention is typically sufficient.

Please note:
Awareness does not imply obligation.
Belief does not require verification.
Feeling is an acceptable substitute for fact.

No changes to current practice are planned.
No response is expected.

This notice is intended to normalize existing behavior and reduce counterproductive self-examination.

It should not be mistaken for permission, even though it is being used that way.
