• Debriefing as a Tool for Mental Recovery

    Reset your mind and recover faster.

    Reset your cognitive functions and restart the stream of information input, at least once in a while. Close open ends and un- or finished business. Whatever it is you're struggling with, get it off your mind.

    Use the model of debriefing, the repetitive and exhaustive recall of every ever so tiny fact possible. Go over and over your issues, spell everything out, write it down or talk it away -- up to the point where nothing is left within your realm of potential -- and potentially dangerous -- interpretation.

    Store your information outside your mind to get rid of it in order to avoid possible harmful memories or conscious flashbacks. Interrogate yourself, remember every detail, eliminate and preclude it from haunting your thoughts once and for all.

    Fully recover, make your mind return to its original state and let it gradually heal through rest in order to regain or save its otherwise easily lost sanity.

    Debriefing is to question to obtain knowledge or intelligence gathered especially on a military mission or to instruct (a government agent, for example) not to reveal classified or secret information after employment has ceased.

    Instruct your mind not to reveal nor to apply any information of which usefulness has ceased. Clear your mind and reflect or deflect your residues off of your peers or eventually cleared personal, at least. Please note that we're not striving to force any kind of amnesia, rather, what we're after is intelligent processing of information, ridding ourselves of superfluous details and galvanizing and retaining the quintessential wisdom.

    It is crucial that the information you release is actively received in a proper way. You need a listener, alternatively write it down, express yourself in decipherable form, provide anything which convinces your mind that the information is not lost. Talking against the wall doesn't work -- while you strive for ideally complete deletion, your mind would attempt to keep a back-up -- just in case.

    After a really thorough debriefing, after repeating your experience all over and again and again, you will recover naturally -- which is made easy, in fact, debriefing uses simple exhaustion to trigger the clearing of the memories and the reset of the cognitive functions.
