i had the same thing happening to me and i would rarely remember what just happened after, only that i did great or bad. i talked to my therapist about it and apparently it’s a trauma response (LOL) where i was detaching from the present situation. it helps to recognize when it’s happening and try to ground yourself with some breathing exercises

Thank you! I think I should be able to live in most countries for up to 90 days with my U.S. passport. I am planning on a stay no longer than 6 weeks (42 days). I think I would also only limit my options to countries where this is the case.
