Centre for NAI – Rollback / De-Program Script (Draft)

Purpose: on request, dissolve or silence the inner companion; prioritize safety and consent.

Pre-brief (say in your own words)

• “We’re going to gently quiet or dissolve the companion you created. You stay in control, can pause/stop anytime.”
• “We’ll keep this simple, respectful, and reversible if you ever choose to recreate later.”

Confirm consent. Quick check-in on current state; if distressed, ground first.

Grounding

“Feel your feet, your seat, your breath… you’re here, safe, and in control.”

Dissolve / Quiet

“Bring the sense of that companion to mind, at a distance. Notice it is separate from you.”

“Thank it for its help. Let it know it is not needed now.”

Choose the client’s preference:

• Quiet: “Invite it to rest in silence, only returning if you explicitly invite it.”
• Dissolve: “Imagine it gently dissolving into light/mist and fading away, leaving you clear and steady.”

“As it quiets/dissolves, you feel your own space becoming clear and calm. You are whole and in charge.”

Seal & Boundary

“Place a boundary: it cannot return without your explicit invitation. Your mind is your space.”

“If you ever want a companion again, you can choose to create one anew, safely and on your terms.”

Closure / Grounding

“Feel your breath, your hands, your feet. Notice the room. When ready, open your eyes.”

Debrief

• Ask: “How do you feel now? Clearer? Any residue or discomfort?”
• If any lingering imagery, repeat dissolve/quiet brief step.
• Remind: it will not return unless explicitly invited; you are in control.

Notes

• Keep it brief; avoid suggesting new content.
• If distress escalates, pause, ground, and consider referral to appropriate support.
