Hi Laura!! 
You are not stuck in a time warp somewhere, I promise!! I understand what you are experiencing and I have been to similar places with perception.
It sounds to me like you are experiencing some dissociative symptoms with your PTSD, which is not uncommon, although can be scary and uncomfortable.
This sounds a lot like Depersonalization and Derealization which are dissociatve symptoms. They can be classified as Dissociative disorders, but just because you are experiencing these symptoms does not mean you have a dissociative disorder.
You can check out the Dissociative Disorders forum and look at some of the stickies which have definitions of these experiences if you like, or you can do a google search.
If you have a T, I would suggest discussing these symptoms with them. These feelings do not mean you're crazy...sometimes they can make a person feel like that, and you are doing okay. It just comes with the territory sometimes.
I'm here for you if you need to talk, and don't hesitate posting to the DD forum if you have questions about anything.
Take care!
