The fugue state may last hours or months.
Dissociative fugue is what mysteries are made of. Seemingly out of nowhere or sometimes after a trauma, a person forgets who they are, where they have come from, and other facts about their identity.
An individual may also appear to vanish from their life and their familiar patterns. This condition, however, is a very real psychological disorder.
