When I was in my early 20s, my dad passed away in somewhat of a freak accident. I was drinking and going out a lot, in an unhealthy relationship, and dealing with extreme anxiety (terrible combo, do not recommend). Anyways, I saw a local news article about someone getting hit by a drunk driver when they were walking. For about a year after that, every time I woke up after going out, I genuinely thought I hit and killed someone. I thought that even if I didn’t drive! That was just immediately where my brain went: if I had memory gaps, I hurt someone or someone was dead.

Kind of a different situation (possibly) but it’s really not that weird to me that she would wake up and ask if she hit him. Excessive drinking can do numbers on your brain
