    hi.
    i have a big problem which is at me every day.
    i broke up with a girl about a year and a half a go.
    it ended up very messy.
    after that i fell apart and long story short i now have a blank scary stare somtimes.
    i scare myself and other people.
    this is where its hard,work!!!
    people could call me and i migt not hear them.
    people seee the stare i have and are talking about me ,behind my back and some people within hearing distance.
    ive heard names like freaky and scary.
    thats not me tho.
    ive had a hard time lately which has taken its toll on me.
    i lost a friend too suicide and another mate died not so long ago.

    i dont want to be the scary person that people talk about.im nice inside.
    thing is i cant keep going into work and having to face this for the rest of my life.
    also im afraid the news will spread to more people .then i will go mad.

    i feel like explaining to the people in work but i dont like them anyway,so i dont.
    one person in particular is getting at me and he knows it and is pushingme.
    i dont know how to confront him or any of this.
    i neeed your help people.thanks

    OP do you feel these starting spells coming on ? Do you get a warning signs such as funny smells? DO you feel strange after ? How long do they last ? Do you get other strange things at the same time - like movements you are not in control of ?

    I think you should go speak to your GP about this. I don't mean to alarm you as there are several possiblitites, but there is a certain type of seizure that presents as 'staring spells', so you should certainly get checked out from that point of view. Apart from that it could be psychological reaction to the no doubt huge stress you've been thru. Either way - I'd say get to a GP soon.

    Your coworkers seriously need to grow up, especially if they know what you've been thru lately. I say ignore them till you get checked out. Whats your boss like ? Is he/she sensible ? Maybe talk to your boss about it, but again might be easier after you get checked out

    Hey Op,

    You should go see the doc, there is a form of epilipsey ( i cant spell it hahaha) where the person gets caught in a sort of trance like you are describing!

    Hope your ok !
