Hey JulieBean!!! I remember you, and have wondered about you from time to time. Thanks for popping in. It is so good to hear that you are doing well.

As to losing time, most people are mildly dissociative sometimes. I have a lot of incidences where I'm staring off into space, and someone asks me what I'm staring at, and I didn't know that I was. There are lots of ways that people dissociate besides that. There is a book I'm reading that you might be interested in. The Stranger in the Mirror - Dissociation - The Hidden Epidemic , by Marlene Steinberg, M.D. She talks about all the ways people dissociate, and how to tell the difference between normal dissociation and when it is cause for concern, and there are quesions you can mark to determine where you stand. If you're really concerned about it, talk to someone, but if it doesn't happen often, and for only like a minute or so, you're probably ok.

Take Care,
Wendy
