Good moves, all of 'em. (Hi! Duckman's shrink!)
Mr. Sue will have to change therapists when he goes on Medicare next week. (I strongly suggested he see one...or go live in the storage room behind the garage.) Also, it gives him someone, besides me, to talk to.
Current one is has social science hx, no more. I think that someone with a hard science background might have identified the statins as a possible source of his crazy.
Chemistry is a beautiful thing. (Except for that stupid periodic table that has WAY MORE items on it than when I got a `Gentleman's D' in HS Chem class.) Off the statins, he feels less fuzzy in his thinking, more in control of how he responds to frustrations and he JUST told me that he has fewer muscle aches.
It's the "responds to frustrations" thing I noticed first...then, that the disordered executive function skills are improving, too.
So I'm glad you are addressing the possible chemistry of it all and that you have a rent-a-friend, because those folks can often provide far more honest feedback than folks who hang with us for free. (You only have to like them enough to keep making appointments.)
And, Mr. Sue now asks if you are on statins. I think you addressed this earlier, but I'm too worn out* to go find it.
*We had dinner last night with @DianaCox and her hubby. There are no photos, so it may not have happened. But, it was Argentine food and I still taste garlic! That may be proof enough.
