HHi dear.

I had gone through your query.

There are two possible diagnosis of her clinical presentation.

1st is dissociative disorder in which identity disturbances along with amnesia occurs .means inability to recall events.

It is stress related and can be treated with medicines.

2nd is it may like siezure episode most likely TLE.
means temporal lobe epilepsy.

To differentiate this conditions you have to consult psychiatrist/neurologist and require investigation like EEG.

So after proper diagnosis, we are able do reach proper conclusion.

So consult and get help.

Still if you have a query then feel free to ask.

Happy to help you further.

Get well soon.

Take care.
