Guys, I fucked up.
No it's not an ND, AD situation. It's a wrong/poor reaction situation.
Heard a loud noise last night in my house (I live alone, no pets) and I just jumped up and ran, unarmed, to investigate. Once I checked all exterior doors upstairs, and moved toward the basement to check the basement door (house is built on a hillside so one side of the basement has an exterior door) I realized I should grab my shotgun and light before heading downstairs so I did. House cleared, all doors and windows secured, no intruders.

After the adrenaline calmed down and I was able to think about what I had just done, I realized how stupid it was to go investigate the source of the noise unarmed. But that was my reaction. No thinking, just reacting.

How can I train myself to think more clearly in a situation like that and not just run toward the sound? To grab my shotgun and light, and calmly slowly investigate?

(turned out the new shower curtain rod wasn't up securely and fell to the floor making a loud metal on ceramic sound, and knocking over a metal trashcan in the process)

I need to retrain how I react. To think before reacting. I jumped up and ran without thinking. I need to not do that.
It's easy to say "don't do that...do this" but when the shit goes down (as I thought it had, but thankfully had not) it's a different story.

Stop being a sperg and think about things for an extra 2 seconds. You're not going to train to not be a spaz, you need to stop being a spaz. Stop yourself and think.

Well you just learned a valuable lesson without having any serious consequences.

Now you need to separate yourself from the niggers and actually remember a valuable lesson.

Honestly just start doing clearing drills on a regular basis. I have the opposite of your problem, I'm grabbing my gun for every stray cat that sets off the motion detector lights

Survival of the fittest, which in this case, would have been the intruder, who would have killed you easily and then been rewarded with a loaded shotgun, sitting propped up next to your bed.

Add an extra step into leaving your room. I place my dumbbells Infront of my door. You could change out your door handle to need a key on both sides, anything to slow you down and give you some time to think.

Change your response drill?
Or have a response drill and practice it. Just like fire drills.
Train hard so you act and not just react yadda yadda etc.

Easy fix. Get yourself some PTSD by checking out a disturbance while unarmed. Because you're unarmed, you'll be at a disadvantage and unable to defend yourself against the dindu who will proceed to shoot and/or beat you to within an inch of your life.

If you survive, you'll live the rest of your life in paranoia and any time you so much as even hear a squirrel rustling in a tree outside, you'll be diving for your gun as automatically as your instinct to breathe.

Hope this helps, anon.
