DS2 and I walked to the shops to get some spuds. He was running on ahead and then waiting for me to catch up. He did this for a third time, I stopped to let a bike go past on a narrow bit of path (took about 20 seconds) and I forgot where I was and lost DS. Completely. I couldn't remember where he had gone. I called him and he didn't answer. Then I began to wonder if I had him with me at all. I called him again getting more and more panicky and had this vision of people staring at me calling madly for a child that wasn't there. I simply couldn't remember if he was with me or not. I started to run up the footpath, nearly in tears and then DS jumped out at me. He was hiding as a joke.
I am coming of citalopram so weird symptoms are expected but this was horrible. Terrifying.
God I need sleep.
