i have like ptsd-like reflexes. especially when it comes to being woken up at night. if i hear a sound i jump up immediately. and i mean immediately. i jump out of bed. on my feet. like im on duty.
but I LIKE TO CALL IT military reflexes Because I like to think of it as keeping one eye always open as they say.

For the years I was in Tae Kwon Do we always, for reasons of an abusive brother, we always made fast solid attacks and defenses. We were trained to jump into position and say "ice". It sounds silly I know, but after a couple years my brother tried to attack me from around the corner. When I saw him I immediately, out of reflex, jumped into position. I don't remember if I said "ice" but I do remember I got his attention.
