== Anime and Manga ==

* Agito, the short-tempered fire fairy from ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'', can only remember being confined in a lab, which had left her almost completely broken, physically and mentally. According to her, she was only days away from death by exhaustion before being rescued.

** Also, Jeft refers to extremely powerful psionics as suffering this fate while Shag is yelling at him for apparently inducing psionic powers in Ringo.

* In ''[[Emergence]]'', Sam, Cliff and the other students who find and help the members of Team RWBY explicitly worry about government agents doing this to the girls -- unnecessarily, as it turns out.
