I'm having some trouble thinking

I was wondering when some one having like fugue ... what happening in their mind?

I expect I already know what a couple responses will be, but I just not thinking this is natural..

Feel calm, just can't function at capacity.. but I'm ok, some how managing 😞

if you google the word you will find many sources that explains fugue is a short term mental amnesia problem from going through some recent trauma. they forget who they are, where they live, what their phone number is.... all kinds of stuff...

like when I go through it I dont even remember I have a psych central account, what my real name is or even my user name, email accounts passwords, family names, my own address, my own phone number. I have to carry information on my medic alert bracelet that tells anyone who finds me wandering who I am and who to contact to get me home. otherwise each time it happens I would be locked up in some mental ward because it is a mental amnesia associated to recent traumatic events.

Im going to take a guess here that you dont have to worry about this.. you havent posted about any recent trauma's your posts are very detailed on your situation at the moment and you are able to log on here at psych central and you remember what your user name is and remember how to make posts here (other wise you wouldnt be posting here Just using reality testing here like I do with me and my problems )

but if you are worried about going through this talk with your treatment providers there is treatment that can help. I am on medications that slow down things so that the dissociative problems in me dont get so extreme.

Can it be from meds, tiredness, over exertion, focus, thinking, drugs?

The closest I come to a fugue state are instant moments that last minutes (thank God not hours or days) of not knowing who I am, what I’m doing, where I’m at, where I’m going, where I’ve been. I usually get very panicked and bewildered in these moments, like my memory is wiped clean for a few moments.

I'm on effexor 150 mg.
Gabapentin 300mg, but I don't take it 3 times a day anymore a lot because I don't remember or have the chance...
Propronalol 20mg
Amlodapine
Lipitor

I've been like this for a long time.. it's just harder I think because I'm trying to change, don't have routine, confusing...

Ughh

I think that maybe I'm just s little slow ..

I've been under a lot of pressure

Staying with the half bro that tried to kill us during the week trying to view things propper, rational, I need to do these things, I have no choice.. I don't think I'm going to make it, but I'm not giving up... it's hard.. I am not very much in control of any of this , I'm just riding the rapids trying not to get sucked under..

I don't wanna do it anymore, I'm so stressed, tired... damn...
