RJ, I too had these sorta out of body experiences where I would not remember what I had done. I call them out of body because I don't have a better way to describe them. I think the psych world calls them disassociation and there is another term for it but I can't remember it right now. I too had it brought on by triggers like smells and situations. The worse things I done was drive my car and come to being somewhere and not remembering how I got there. I did not always have complete memory loss. Sometimes I would just get strange body sensations like numbness or tingling. I've gotten better through therapy, meds, journaling, and such. Now they don't happen as often. So, it will get better for you too. It takes time and healing from the trauma. I feel for you because I understand what you are going through........D.
