Abstract Background Recent developments in Global Workspace theory suggest that human consciousness can suffer interpenetrating dysfunctions of mutual and reciprocal interaction with embedding environments which will have early onset and often insidious staged developmental progression possibly according to a cancer model in which a set of long-evolved control strategies progressively fails. Methods and results A rate distortion argument implies that if an external information source carries a damaging message then sufficient exposure to it particularly during critical developmental periods is sure to write a sufficiently accurate image of it on mind and body in a punctuated manner so as to initiate or promote similarly progressively punctuated developmental disorder in essence either a staged failure affecting large-scale brain connectivity which is the sine qua non of human consciousness or else damaging the ability of embedding goal contexts to contain conscious dynamics. Conclusion The key intervention at the population level is clearly to limit exposure to factors triggering .
