How Can My Friend Forget Her Past Events In Her Life Due To Stress?
My friend has fainted and become unresponsive twice in 2 weeks, the first time she wa kept at the hospital for 3 days and they assumed stress, the second was last night and she was abel to sign her self out tonight. however last night and today she did not remember that she is divorced and not been with her husband for 1 year and a half. she did not remember moving, or even being at the hospital 2 weeks prior. She seen the man she was recently dateing and just broke up with and did not know him. what could this mean. she would not stay at the hospital to see a crisis nurse and no one know what to do or how to help
We worry once she is alone again she will pass out and no one will find her next time. I know stress can do many things to people, but with her loseing parts of the last year and half of her life I worry something is shutting down. any suggestions
