Unstuck in Time / int_12300cc3	comment	Happens twice to Dr. Manhattan in Watchmen. As a result of the accident that creates him, he's able to perceive the entirety of his life at once. In the climax, the Big Bad bombards him with Tachyons, rendering him unable to see present events. Since the character can exist in multiple places and times simultaneously, this is confusing, even for him. As he describes it (before the tachyon surge), it's like a barrier he can't see past from his current position. But then, once the event takes place, he doesn't seem to have any problem still seeing/remembering the past...

From the perspective of the other characters, she's on the correct timeline and seems fine apart from a tendency to talk in non sequiturs. From her perspective however, she's experiencing exactly what the trope describes. Some characters specialize in time manipulation and have become briefly Unstuck in Time as a result of stressful situations. Involuntary time travel has been seen in characters plummeting to their death or giving birth, for example.

Unstuck in Time / int_81692f99	comment	This is a frequent occurrence in Star Trek: Captain Picard in the last episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. A variation happens to Worf in "Parallels": instead of being Unstuck in Time, he keeps traveling between parallel universes. (Unstuck in timelines?) Miles O'Brien in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Visionary". It's not random — he always jumps 6 hours ahead, every 6 hours, landing a short distance from his future self. In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "The Visitor", a weird accident involving the Defiant's warp core and the wormhole results in Sisko getting caught in subspace, experiencing minutes where the outside experiences decades. The episode revolves around Jake's efforts to figure out what happened and get him back. Kes, in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Before and After", except she's traveling backwards in time from the end of her life, and the timeline that is shown never actually comes to be, since Kes gets off the ship long before then. It does, however, provide some foreshadowing for the upcoming "Year of Hell" storyline. The beginning of the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Coda" appears to involve this, with Janeway and Chakotay reliving a conversation and shuttle crash more than once... but by mid-season 3, they're old hands at this and just start scanning for the tachyons. It's actually an elaborate illusion by a creature that feeds on life force.

In the beginning of the fifth season, the survivors left on the island begin to jump through time. Most time travel here is physical teleportation, but Desmond's is mental. Side effects of being Unstuck in Time is probably what Daniel was suffering before coming to the Island. He seems to improve once arriving, either due to the Island's healing properties, or because Desmond is his constant.

Henry suffers from a genetic disease which is eventually named Chrono Displacement Disorder. Like epilepsy, it can initially manifest as a seizure, and be brought on by things like flashing lights, television images, or stress. Unlike epilepsy, the end result is Henry finding himself completely naked in an unknown time in a place he's likely (but not guaranteed) to have been before. Since it's a genetic disease, Henry manages to pass it to his daughter Alba. Fortunately for her, she seems to have developed a bit more control about where and when she ends up.
