[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3008248, member: 10465"] I think there's a lot of us that just live like this a little bit, many for so long now it's just natural and even normal to us...always sitting in a restaurant so we have a good vantage point, never with your back to the door. Always have a plan mapped out for egress and reaction. Taking constant note of things nearby that can be used either defensively or to wreak havoc if needed. Lots of folks refer to this as situational awareness, but for a few, it's just the way life is lived. I still out of habit look at available fields of fire, even making little plans as I go about my day to day activities in various places as to how I would react given a certain situation...it's not paranoia, it's preparation. I rarely have those dreams...but when they come, they can be damned real and just as damn scary as the events that caused them. But it is also kind of funny to me that they aren't like normal nightmares, where one almost knows it's just a dream; they are much more realistic...it's like I really was in that damn helicopter last night, up until The point I hit the bathroom floor and realized what the deal was. Now, I can get a chuckle out of it...but it has taken some time to get to that point. [/QUOTE]
