Have you read the postings in the schizophrenic / psychosis type boards. usually catatonia is associated with psychosis and schizophrenic disorders when its part of mental disorders.

maybe even contact your treatment provider or a mental health treatment provider. they may be able to point you to the right direction for open to the public support and therapy groups that address this issue.

college classes also deal with these subjects and usually have segments where they invite someone from the community who has the problems being discussed in the classes to be guest speakers for the class.

what I can tell you about my relative and his personal and subjective issues on this is yes sometimes he does remember like I stated sometimes he tells us after he is back in his right frame of mind what it was like for him. other times he does not remember.

in other words its a situaiton of sometimes yes and sometimes no, there is no right way to have catatonia. my suggestion stands if you feel you may have this problem contact a treatment provider they can help you.
