<font color="green"> I don't believe I have any alters but I lose time; up to a couple of hours at times. Usually I am still where I started at but sometimes I have sort of continued on my way. I seem to lose stuff often I think I spaced and put it away whereever seemed right at that time. I have 'spaced out' while driving and only came to when I was stopped by a cop. I was doing at least 86 mph in a 55 mph and the accelerater was on the floor.

How can I know when I am gonna space out? What can I do to avoid it? I know if I am having flashbacks or intrusive thoughts that can trigger me to space out. But generally I realize I have taken a leave of abscence when I 'wake up.' </font>
