I wish it could be something as simple as being distracted or a symptom of PTSD...but it is not.

I lock all my doors...then take a visual look at all of them...then I do a manual check to see if the doors will open...then I set my car alarm.

Time of day isn't a factor at all. It happens at all times of the day and night. I live in a townhouse complex so I don't have a garage to park my car in.

When I have parked my car at a grocery store parking lot or where ever else....my locks remain locked. And I do the same checking method every time.
