Por que Bourne tem dores de cabeça?

18

Jason Bourne, de A Identidade Bourne e A Supremacia Bourne , muitas vezes experimenta dores de cabeça devido a algo que ele passou para se tornar do jeito que ele é.

O que exatamente ele passou para obter essas dores de cabeça? Existe uma explicação no universo (talvez dos livros, ou no Ultimato Bourne ) para isso?

De A Supremacia Bourne :

Pamela You'd been working at Treadstone for three years, and your cover at the time was what?

Nicky That I was an American student in Paris.

Pamela And what exactly did your job with Treadstone in Paris consist of?

Nicky I had two responsibilities. One was to coordinate logistical operations. The other was to monitor the health of the agents.

Pamela Health, meaning what?

Nicky Their mental health. Because of what they had been through, they were prone to a variety of problems.

Pamela What kind?

Nicky Depression, anger, compulsive behaviors. They had physical symptoms. Headaches, sensitivity to light.

Pamela Amnesia?

Nicky Before Bourne? No.

De A Identidade Bourne , sabemos que os sintomas afetam mais do que apenas Jason Bourne:

The Professor Do you get the headaches?

Bourne Yeah

The Professor I get such bad headaches. You know at night when you're driving a car? I don't know, something to do with the headlights.

Em seu livro Robert Ludlum: Um companheiro crítico , Gina MacDonald extrai O Manual Diagnóstico e Estatístico da Associação Psiquiátrica Americana para discutir o desenvolvimento do autor Ludlum das causas e sintomas de doenças de Webb / Bourne (p 134-135).

Bourne is the deadly alter ego that Webb assumed to survive the jungle warfare in Vietnam and Cambodia as a member of the Medusa Brigade; in times of stress this alter ego surfaces and the gentle Webb recedes. Unfortunately, Webb will never rid himself of the results of his initial trauma unless he can destroy the cause of retraumatization, specifically, the Jackal. The series explores Bourne’s progression: amnesia and a divided personality resulting from debilitating psychological responses to trauma, then retraumatization, treatment, and gradual progress toward normality, followed by retraumatization, and a final working out of conflict that may result in a reintegrated, whole personality…

Ludlum, drawing on the expertise of relatives in the medical profession, provides plentiful details about causes, symptoms, and retraumatization…

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) [is] a constellation of characteristic symptoms that develop following a psychologically traumatic event… the immediate systematic responses include heart palpitations or tachycardia, cardiac uneasiness or pain, headaches, giddiness, dimness of vision, and general neurological upselt (exaggerated respiration, dilation of arteries, increased generation of adrenalin). The long-term effects include deep anxiety, depression, hysteria, dissociative reaction, depersonalization, neurasthenia, intense psychological distress when exposed to events resembling the initial trauma event,…intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, and nightmares. There may be a feeling of detachment or estrangement from others, difficulty sleeping, persistent irritability or anger, hypervigilance, exaggerated startle response, guilt, episodes of terror or panic, difficulties making decisions, and a feeling that one’s personality has changed. These are all effects that Webb/Bourne experiences at one time or another in the series.

Então, a resposta curta é PTSD.

O projeto Treadstone levou indivíduos (como David Webb - que se tornaria Jason Bourne) e usou técnicas de lavagem cerebral / programas de modificação de comportamento para desmontá-los e reconstruí-los (despir sua moralidade ou hesitação em matar) como assassinos finais. A modificação teve efeitos fisiológicos crônicos, como dores de cabeça e sensibilidade à luz. Isto foi coberto mais profundamente nos livros em que os filmes foram baseados.
