Have you ever had the "whole life flashing before my eyes" experience (not necessarily in a near-death situation; there are other triggers), and if so did you have a sense of time slowing to a crawl, nearly stopping?

"Time isn't actually slowing" is not actually a meaningful statement anymore. That absolute mode of accounting for time experience is starting to be as obsolete in psychology as it is in physics.

bah the textbooks are all obsolete :D
that ptsd paper I shared with you is one of the few that actually gets close to what I think is the correct view that simply hasn't been articulated as a paradigm yet, but you can see the contortions trying to save clock-time

cf our shared interest in boyd, one of the things a relativistic subjective time perspective clarifies is the mystic sounding idea of "getting inside the opponent's decision cycle and collapsing it from within" etc (the ptsd paper suggests how/why)
