How Did Forrest Gump, Jacob, Divorce Yourself From Your Body?

Tim Ferriss: When you were five years old, I spent some extended time in a hospital bed. And one of the comments you made was that you actually not only had to divorce yourself from the outside world, but you had to divorce yourselves from your own body. So I'd love it if you could just go into a little bit of detail on how that affected you then and when you look back, how it's affected you throughout your life. Fergusson: Well, everybody has coping mechanisms, right? And they work more or less well.
