POTENTIAL TROUBLE SOURCE

1. the PTS guy is fairly obvious. He's here, he's way up today and he's way down tomorrow and he gets a beautiful session and then be gets terribly ill. That's the history of his life. If you look into his folder, you will look at a folder summary and you will see that every two or three sessions is a repair. He can't stay on a program. He goes a little distance up the Grade Chart then has to be patched up. It looks like Coney Island-hence rollercoaster. (ESTO 3, 7203CO2 SO I) 2. the main cause of being a potential trouble source is being connected with persons (such as marital or familial ties) of known antagonism to Sen. (OODs 4 Jun 71) 3. those who are connected with the destructively anti-social outside the org. (HCO PL 30 Aug 70) 4. the mechanism of PTS is environmental menace that keeps something continually keyed in. This can be a constant recurring somatic or continual, recurring pressure or a mass. The menace in the environment is not imaginary in such extreme cases. The action can be taken to key it out. But if the environmental menace is actual and persists it will just key in again. This gives recurring pressure unrelieved by usual processing. (HCOB 5 Dec 68) Abbr. PTS.

A term used for a person who gets better, then worse, better, then worse. This occurs only when a person is connected to someone who is invalidating him or his life. It results in illness and trouble for himself and those around him. He will not get any better and stay better until the source of invalidation is located. A PTS is connected to a suppressive person. See also suppressive person.

a person who is in some way connected to and being adversely affected by a suppressive person. They are called a potential trouble source because they can be a lot of trouble to themselves and to others. See also SPs in this glossary. —OEC - Out-Tech App Mar 91

a person who is in some way connected to and being adversely affected by a suppressive person. He is called a potential trouble source because he can be a lot of trouble to himself and to others.someone who is connected with a suppressive person who is invalidating him, his beingness, his processing, his life; someone connected to a person or a group opposed to Scientology. This connection results in illness and roller-coaster (gets better, then gets worse). Processing would work with such a person for a moment, then wouldn't work. One can't audit this person up faster than the environment knocks him down. Because the case doesn't get well, he is a potential trouble source to Scientology organizations, to others and to himself.
