I can safely testify that interacting with your 'old self' is extremely therapeutic.
After ignoring a nasty experience at age 5 for many years...
<<personal life falling apart, leading to a nasty divorce>>
I deliberately went looking for my younger self in The Place Where Dreams Are Made.
Adult me found and comforted young me. We 'discussed' a few things.
And I FINALLY started healing from a 38 year-old wound!
Roko has an excellent opportunity for (closure?) on the loss of her old body. Hopefully, leading to better acceptance (integration?) with the new one.

The answer appears to be: At least not yet. At least not Roko.
Also, I sometimes wish I could interact with my younger self. That dude needed a good slappin'. Don't know if it would have done any good, though.

Not yet, probably later. I want to believe JJ won't pass up the chance of electric sheep.

This seems like a storyline that would be more apropos in December.

A CHRISTMAS ROBO-CAROL
GHOST 1: “I am the ghost of your old body!”
GHOST 2: “And I am the ghost of your current body!”
ROKO: “Wait, shouldn’t I be the ghost of my current body?”
GHOST 2: “You’re overanalyzing. Just go with it, okay?”
ROKO: (sigh) “All right. I guess that makes you...”
PINTSIZE: “The ghost of your future body!”
GHOST 3: “No, he isn’t. Who the fuck let his perverted ass in here?”
GHOST 1: “Sorry, that was me. I’m doing a whole bread-fetish-as-metaphor-for-commitment-issues thing and I need him to toss some rolls at her.”
GHOST 3: “Well, keep him under control, will you? Jesus, this dream is such a shitshow.”
ROKO: “Should I even ask why you look like May?”
GHOST 3: “Manifestation of anxiety about your whole life going even further down the fucking toilet. Try to keep up.”
