i lost five months (for the most part) in which time i had an affair, divorced my husband, married another and got pregnant, quit my job of 2 1/2 years and had pushed all friends and family away. someone else lived my life and completely changed it. for a long time i had to live someone else's life until i could make it my own.

i only recently found out in therapy that this was to save my life and make my life safer so that i could stay in the world.

DID is an amazing thing.

in answer to your question, i did not plan on taking off (no one inside did that i know of). i think a fugue is very sudden in its description. to me, it sounds like a part of you wants change or to get the heck outta dodge. are you seeing a t so that the two of you can get to the bottom of this?
