- all events creates memories but those with stress increasing or relieving events create specific properties, cf WithoutNotesMay11#SocialAllostasis or ClickingMoments#Neurochemistry, like other cognitive mechanisms via physical changes, in particular physiological i.e. chemical
- during moments with minimum external stimuli gathering, e.g. during sleep, recent memories e.g. of the previous day, are stacked by intensity of those stress related markers and then re-experienced appearing like a continuous event or "story"
- this facilitate better encoding of what should most likely postively impact surviving by trying to pre-process complex fight of flee patterns to be later on executed in real time
- note that such stress related event can be socially simulated, e.g. homework that will scored by the teacher the next day, major examination, etc... cf MentalExercises
