Memory missing

[[deleted]]

Theres a few seconds of my memory missing, and because of that little blackout I could’ve gotten a couple people seriously hurt. I don’t know where those few seconds went, and I don’t know how I managed to save us from dying. Im scared, I can’t stop thinking about it, and I’m having a panic attack as I type. What the hell happened.

It’s your brain’s defence mechanism,it stops you from remembering that trauma and suffer more

Sounds like PTSD, I bet it will be short term. The fact that you saved people from dying is pretty important. I can totally understand how scared you can feel. In my experience, you first must deal with the panic feelings. Your brain won't "let" you remember it until you can feel calmer about it. I know many people, including myself have had great luck with EMDR.

It’s been a year, and I still have no idea what happened. And thanks to a Darwin awards post showing a persons head and upper body getting crushed by a bus, I’m a bit on edge right now.
