  • A strange outgrowth of PTSD, is now that I rarely get triggered enough for flash backs, bi-location and other temporal strangeness, I find that my reactions times are greatly improved, if I drop something like a piece of toast or a glass, time seems to slow down but I can move and seem to move much faster and catch the dro9pped object really quickly or block an incomming object. It's like I'm moving in bullet time from the Matrix, I'd love to learn how to explore this more, I also seem to be aware of falling enough to be able to roll and avoid hurting myself to badly, it's very strange.
