I'm currently on treatment for depression and the insomnia that often comes with it. The potency of the medications, besides making me lose my motor skills sometimes, are rendering me paramnesiac. Put simply, the thin line between reality and fantasy are becoming so blurred that I find myself following up on things that only happened in my head.
Arguments with my ex-wife in 1986 are so vivid that I recall them word for word the following morning; because I'm still asleep even with my eyes open. Translation: sleepwalking. The worst part is when I called my son Luis (who lives in Miami!) and accused him of taking $300 from my wallet. He said "Dad, you're not making sense. ... Why would I take a plane from Miami to NY in the middle of the night to steal $300 bucks from you? ... You need to get off the meds you're taking."
Sometimes the side-effects of Rx medications can mimic dementia and perhaps Alzheimer's, so I decided to stop treatment and see e therapist. Maybe s/he will help me get to the actual roots of my problems instead of masking them with pills and more pills.
