I think I have a problem with my brain, I blank out a lot...?!
Question: I think I have a problem with my brain, I blank out a lot!.!.!.!?
I've had this bad habit of spacing out lately, and it's really not a good thing!. It mainly happens to me when I'm driving, or when I'm just sitting by myself!. I don't know if it's because I think too much when I'm alone, and my brain goes into overdrive and I blank out or what!. But it's scary!. I've driven all the way to a town 30 mins away to pick up my boyfriend and I can't remember ever looking at the road!. I'll drive through town to go somewhere and I can't remember how I got there!. I'm scared at some point I'm going to get into a wreck and get hurt, or worse!.
I've always had a bad memory, but this is kind of ridiculous!. I think there's something wrong, but I don't know what to do about it!.
Has anyone heard of people doing stuff like this!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't be overly concerned; a lot of folks dissociate while driving and alone!. Yes, it is not a good thing to do when driving, but it is generally because you are not being distracted!. Try putting on music that gets your attention, leave the car windows down or blast the A/C to try and keep you aware of what is going on!.!.!.or try to count the number of stop lights between the locations or whatever will keep your attention!.
Dissociation becomes an issue when you are actually losing time; when you come to a day later and don't know what you did; when a friend tells you about a lunch date you had with him/her that you have no active memory of going to, etc!.!.!.that is when it becomes a real issue!. If you are just "blanking out" when you are alone, it is minimal!.
However, as others have suggested, to be safe discuss it with your doctor and see what s/he says!.
Best of luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
