I think I had at least one car accident because I was in a dissociative state. But, that was about 20 years ago. All I know is that I pulled out in front of someone because I didn't even see them, and was T-boned (thankfully, not in the drivers door). But, I'll never know for sure, because there is a possibility that the other driver was speeding and I just misjudged the timing (there was some talk of this at the scene and I never even got a ticket). But, I did have the odd feeling of dissociation just before the accident, so I think it most likely played a part in the accident.

I don't know that I did anything specific except that I kept dealing with the issues in my life. The ones that were most likely causing my dissociative states. So, no easy answers, I'm afraid.

Looking back at it now, it doesn't seem like all that big a deal. Think of all the spacey things anyone is capable of. I had some pretty significant childhood traumas in my life (fundamentalism, sexually abused, alcoholic father, mentally ill mother, the fact I saw my dad physically and mentally abuse my mother) that I was trying to deal with at the time. It was overwhelming.
