Speed of Processing

[FreyasSpirit]

We are curious at what speed others process their past. In particular, we have very little access to memories from elementary school and expect to dig up quite a bit when we do decide to look at those memories. We have a technique, view memories in first person to bring out the headmate who experienced those memories. This then grants us access to memories temporally close to when that headmate was fronting.

We used this once to accidentally gain access to elementary school memories. That time, we only looked at happy memories. We feel like we have all the tools we need to dive deeply into many more memories, but have been fairly cautious. We do not wish to upset our current stability or ability to hold a job by bringing out more than we can handle. At the same time, we do wish to look at those memories at some point and do not want to delay this indefinitely in the name of short term stability.

How do other beings determine whether they are ready and able to look at and process more of their past?
