Hannah Upp missing teacher suffers dissociative fugue amnesia in St Thomas during a hurricane | Daily Mail Online
''She was diagnosed with a rare condition known as 'dissociative fugue' - a temporary form of amnesia in which one forgets their identity but can maintain the ability to survive and perform regular tasks. Some sufferers wander off for days, weeks, months and sometimes years while occasionally adopting a new personality.''
'''You can know Hannah for a long time and not know pretty substantial things about Hannah's life,' said Guzman on the documentary. Behind the bubbly façade she knew that the Upp might have 'been struggling with things that weren't on the surface.'
Hannah Upp was raised in Oregon as the daughter of two Methodist ministers. Her parents divorced when she was 15-years-old and her father moved abroad to preach the gospel to native tribes in Africa and Southeast Asia. Growing up in a very conservative Christian household caused Upp to struggle with her identity as a young student on her own at the prestigious Bryn Mawr College. According to The New Yorker, her strict father believed that 'there is no such human as a natural homosexual' but by the time Upp reached her third year at university, she was dating a woman. Curiously, both 2008 and 2013 fugues occurred after Upp had returned home from travelling with her father abroad.''
''Upp first went missing in 2008 in New York City for 20 days, she was rescued by a Staten Island Ferryman that found her floating in the harbor. Upp experienced her second fugue in 2013, when she vanished for two days and 'came-to' in a dirty residential creek in Maryland. Both times, she had no recollection of what happened or how much time had passed when she finally snapped out of the fugue''
''Upp's friend, Maggie Guzman said, 'She was the center of the party, whatever she was doing, she was intensely doing' whether it was work, hobbies, friends or sports and especially swimming. Upp was naturally drawn to water and when she went missing in 2017, friends and family told Guzman to 'look by water' because in two previous fugues, Upp had been discovered in water''
