hi there are multiple differential diagnoses of this case..may be a depersonalization phenomena, may be dissociative state, may be certain form of seizure..all said and done, please consult a neurologist and get an EEG done..if needed, then consult a psychiatrist..don't worry..its a remediable disorder if cared earlier..wish her good health
