screen goes fuzzy/static then logs out

Hi,

Hello DanielCatley,


Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities and asking for help with your Mac logging out while using it.


It sounds like the computer is quitting unexpectedly, and then reloading to your login screen. Please check the troubleshooting provided in this help article: If your Mac spontaneously restarts or displays a message that it restarted or shut down because of a problem - Apple Support


Even if you are not receiving any alert or error messages, there are many great troubleshooting steps within this article that apply to your situation, and it even has options to help you isolate this issue from a software or a hardware problem. Thanks and have a wonderful day.
