Q: Implanted? What does that mean?

I know someone a little loony, lives in a different country (US) and she said she thought maybe I had been 'implanted' from living in Asia too long or something like that.  What does that mean and is it a Chinese thing ?

Indoctrinated comes to mind when implanted is used to describe a person. Perhaps being established securely in consciousness could be the meaning as well. Your friend could mean that your mind has been implanted with Chinese ideology perhaps?
