It's stress induced I'm pretty sure. It's a form of dissociation at the least, since you ARE doing something not just zoning out and standing there dazed.

Be gentle with yourself. Try to limit your exposure to things that trigger you, or demand more of you. You might confide in a friendly co-worker that "if" you seem a bit foggy for them to ask you how you are or to say something (this will help you ground yourself.)

And do go over the ways to ground yourself when feeling this way. I'm pretty sure there's a sticky post on them.
