Brief Answer:
Percocet causes dizziness, drowsiness and may be responsible!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this. Percocet causes a depressed state of consciousness and may explain this. You might have written this under the influence of this drug and never realized it.

Beyond that, there is no other way through which it may be explained. I hope the portions do not have any major implications in your life.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
