A: You probably experienced what is called perceptual narrowing. A person in a traumatic event can lose focus on their surroundings. For instance if you see a dog and you are scared of dogs, you would see the dog only rather than what is around the dog. It could progress to even just seeing the dogs face. Your awareness widened when the threat was no longer a threat.
