-->>>>>>> Next Section <<<<<<< Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=US-ASCII I have experienced the mental freezing quite a few times since I was DXed with PD. The more common term is "mental confusion" and it is often a side-effect of PD medications. The most common form is being unable to follow a thread of thought. For instance, I will start to look for a specific page in a document and before I get to it I will have forgotten what I was looking for. There was also an increase in the incidents of the "mind's a blank" phenomenon. The most serious condition I ever exeperience was what I call "disassociation". By that I mean I would have the image of a three sided figure in my mind and also have the word "triangle" but would not be able to associate the two. Of course, all of this has caused me to think more of the hereafter....whenever I walk into a room I often wonder what I am here after! <grin>.
