It's possible. My therapist today said that unlike any other patients she sees (she specializes in trauma), she considers me hyper-aware rather than hyper-vigilant. That observation, we agreed, has to do with my meditation practice. That awareness of every moment or, if not every moment, certainly more moments than most are aware of, keeps me grounded, present and not dissociating, most of the time.
