[CONTEXT RESTRICTED TO 5/FSD CLEARANCE]
Item: SCP-8379
Object Class: Conscientia Radix
Special Containment Procedures: A disinformation campaign is to establish among the general population that SCP-8379 is a natural consequence of the psychological and physiological processes handling pain and grief and is thus a non-anomalous, fully perceptual phenomenon.
As the principles of reality simulation required to develop SCP-8379-2 are not yet available to the general population, no further containment measures are needed.
Description: SCP-8379 is a minor time dilation phenomenon that affects humans and other sapient beings under severe physical or psychological distress. Known triggers include:
- severe physical pain
- absence of engaging stimuli and/or physical, mental or social interaction for very long periods
- extreme lack of sleep
- pronounced grief due to the loss of a loved one or sudden termination of a strong social bond or relationship
- large scale academic or professional failure with no recovery prospect
For a full list of identified triggers please consult [CLEARANCE 5/FSD REQUIRED].
The time dilation effect is usually mild enough to be dismissed by the afflicted person, and, in general, it does not disrupt their normal functioning.
