I'm not certain, but I think I might have figured this out. We hadn't had any problems with mom's anger or raging since going on Zoloft.

Thursday was horrendous! It got more vile with cursing and demanding and accusing. I bit my lip and listened, did not escalate it. Then she said she thought I was poisoning her. She had never been sick a day in her life and did not need pills. Why was I giving her pills?

I did remind her of the dizzy spells and the blood pressure. Nope, she said I was a liar, she was never sick. Said, she knew what was really in those pills..................argh!!!!!!

Every morning, I place her pills in a cup on the table. She always sits in the same place with lots of toys on that end of the table, coloring books, search n find, playing cards, etc. We always have our morning coffe together and just chat. I never thought to make certain she was taking those pills, just see that the cup is empty later.

So last night I'm cleaning around that area of the table and find a couple pills. She hadn't been taking them at all. Stashed among coloring books and crayons, I found Zoloft, the blood pressure meds and the Meclizine.

Good grief! Without Zoloft in the beginning, it was unbearable and I don't know how many she's not taken now. If she thought I was poisoning her.........

I just can't believe it. You know, I would rather have her under someone else's care than to have her think that of me. I was just devastated. We think we're doing our absolute best, and here i am........she wasn't even getting her meds.
