Mind Wandering Episodes Result From Epilepsy
The article describes cases of trancelike wandering and loss of memory linked to epilepsy or severe mental shock. Victims awaken with no recollection of the attack, remain unconscious for hours or months, and may perform rational acts while unaware of their actions. Reports include a man found roaming in Binghampton, a magician, a passenger in a Bombay steamer, and a businessman in Pittsburgh, all tied to epilepsy or similar states. Doctors caution such episodes respond to general-system strengthening treatments and note hope for permanent cures.
