YSK if you've seen something traumatic, playing Tetris for a couple of hours afterwards can drastically reduce the chance of it becoming a deeprooted memory and causing PTSD
A single dose psychological intervention, which includes using the computer game Tetris, can prevent the unpleasant, intrusive memories that develop in some people after suffering a traumatic event.
yo... everyone is laughing cause its kind of funny but I had a really intense and traumatic childhood... and I also played a lot of tetris as a kid. Like more than 12 hours a day of it.
Is that seriously why my trauma didn't effect me like it would have with other people??
Sorry to hear about your childhood. Are you one of these superhumans I watch playing Tetris and thinking "how the FUCK can anyone react that quickly?!". I'm pleased to hear though that you found a way to not be traumatised!
