Visceral: -35, airless codependent anguish. Dominant arc: a narrator drowning in a one-sided painful love, calling herself worthless and too much, clinging to someone only kind in the evenings, missing even the hurt, and voicing self-harm as proof of a devotion she cannot release. Route: negative_payload, pervasive. Harm: orange 10 (self-worthlessness and self-doubt claimed as identity, I'm nothing, too much to love or trust), orange 3 (wallows in the pain without processing, misses the hurt, bleeds it), orange 6 (self-destructive behavior framed as devotion, a threat of self-harm to prove love); the self-directed dysfunction pervades. Tier: deep Degraded, not Corrupted, because the core stance is anguished codependent love and a repeated question of how to heal, not destruction embraced as purpose or cold open-eyed self-destruction (red 7/10); there is no malice toward others and a genuine thread of wishing to be out of it (I wish I was dreaming, I had to leave). Transcendence: 0, no movement or processing (R7); the question of healing stays unanswered and she remains inside the spiral. Placement: below the -42 self-directed-dysfunction anchor, deepened by the self-harm ideation, short of the -65 others-directed floor since the harm is turned inward. Center -55. Contamination: not applicable (orange). Reconciliation: aligned with the -35 visceral direction; deliberation deepens it toward -55 on the self-harm ideation while holding it in orange because the arc is drowning anguish, not celebrated self-destruction.
