It's a really weird feeling almost like a quick daydream and it makes me feel like I can't focus anymore. It's not like I am blacking out or anything and I am responsive whenever people are talking to me it's just really annoying. Any idea what it could be?
Thank you all for your posts. I thought it was just me; I have been experiencing all of these for most of my life as I experienced many concussions as a child. I have tried looking for answers over the years but the Dr’s and friends don’t understand or don’t feel there is anything going on or I can’t concentrate long enough to put the issues and questions on paper to request help (I am so glad that I found this site). I have found that as my job changes and caries more responsibility it becomes more mental (management type work) compared to physical and these symptoms are tending to get more frequent, in my case more rest seams to do little to help.

I have this too but I get it shortly after waking. Even now typing I'm foggy, dizzy and feel like I'm in a dream world. I also get into a trance like state when doing a task like making breakfast for my daughter then bringing her a dog bone. Or making coffee with milk or the best ever....leaving the house in my slippers! I'm losing (lost) my mind!

I have this too and agree that it happens when I have done too much as little as that may be. I have a service dog and it is one of the things he helps me with, he keeps me present. I also set timers on my iPhone from an app I down loaded that helps remind me to ground and relax so I come back to the present. Hilary
