Hey Bella,

I think what Casper means is....

When you start having Flashbacks, or similar notions such as Panic Attacks you can use this technique to focus your mind on the present.

You Start by naming five things in your head that you can see, hear, smell, touch etc.
Then you try and find four thing, then three things, etc.

When your done, you should be calmer, and able to move on from the flashback phase.

Does that make better sense?

I'm still alive.
Must have been a miracle
It's been one hell of a ride
Destination still unkown
It's a fact of life: If you make one wrong move with a gun to your head
You better walk the line or you'll be left for dead.


I'm a runaway train on a broken track
I'm the ticker on the bomb that you can't turn back
Thats right.
I got away with it all and I'm still alive.
Let the end of the world come tumbling down.
I'll be the last man standing on the ground
As long as hot blood runs through my veins
I'm still alive.
