I still cant explain the items moving around the house. I’m even getting to the point of considering the possibility that I could have split personalities and moved the ■■■■ myself without knowing it. Thats how desperate I am to find an answer for that. If I could solve this issue, I would feel like I was completely recovered.
So here are the possibilities that I see.
Im completely mistaken and didnt notice items were there before.
People really are moving ■■■■ around. My mom has a lot of stuff and maybe they are mistaken about what was where before.
People really are moving stuff around to ■■■■ with me.
Im moving stuff around and forgot I move it.
Mom and dad are mistaken on what was where before.
There really is something odd going on.
I forgot that items were where they were
I realllly reallly dont think I have dementia. Could someone with dementia drive all around town or into a neighboring town to visit gf without getting confused?
My grandparents on my dads side had dementia/alzheimers when they got older and got lost driving around eventually couldnt drive anymore. I consider the possibility that maybe I have some memory blanks…but dementia? I seriously doubt that.
Anyway, I doubt anyone here can really give me the answer, but Im typing this out anyway because its the biggest last shred of my recent break that lingers in my mind and I cant easily explain away.
Honestly @Ninjastar s explaination seems the most likely. Maybe I really was forgetting I moved stuff or that stuff was there. I dont know. I do know that psychosis can have an effect on memory, though.
Heres another point on the dementia thing. My girlfreind doesnt have dementia and I am often the one explaining whats going on in a movie…so if my mind is that far gone…how can you explain that Im the one that seems to be on top of things in this area?
Anywho…as you can see, the suggestion that I might have it HAS got under my skin a bit and made me feel like I have to be sure and demonstrate that I dont have it.
Maybe take photos of different rooms of the house so you can check those photos if, in the future, you think something has been moved. This would at least establish whether or not something has been moved.
Thanks @Moonbeam . That IS a very good idea. The stuff moving around and people saying that they were always there hasnt happened in awhile, its mostly past incidents that I cant easily explain away, but it is a very good idea for tracking stuff in case it does happen again. I think I will do that.
I think they all could be true except 3 and 6. There is a rational explanation for what’s happening around your house and it’s more logical to explain it as a natural occurring phenomena than some religious or supernatural explanation. You’re probably too young for dementia and even though you may still have delusions you sound lucid and you make sense and your mind seems all there.
Yeah, I’ve been reading your posts but I haven’t answered one in a while. It’s too bad you’re going through such hard times. Thanks for thinking of me. I’m doing OK, I keep to myself mostly though I’m working with my case worker to get more involved in life. I hope you start feeling better soon. Good luck.
