The trouble is that she leaves her things where ever she might be at the time, then of course can’t remember where she left them. So the next thing is somebody took “it” most likely she believes it was me. Or it got thrown out etc. when she looks for something the drawers start to slam the cabinet doors are ripped open and slammed shut. She doesn’t search in a slow observant pace. She essentially just stuffs her whatever’s in any place she finds. Yesterday evening she went on a rant looking for her hand mirror which of course I took!
After a few minutes of careful searching I found it stuffed under some clothing in her closet. That made it worse as she accused me of purposely hiding it to make her feel “dumb” This is the way most days end the past few weeks. I have tried to consolidate her things by category into one place or pile but by the next day it has been scattered to the “wind”
It’s a good thing I’m not a drinker🙃

@lost55 I do not even have words....so sorry. Yes, I would likely try the medication. May keep you both safer. Agree if. you were a drinker it would increase for sure.
