Your husband sounds much the same as mine was. He would "see" 250 men pushing our travel trailer.I had to go to the county to get information proving that someone hadn't put liens on our house.
Sometimes he would be coherant. He went from 210 to 150 or so pounds.
The worst part was that he was angy with me often because I couldn't fix things for him . We argued a lot. When I heard him say, "We need to talk." I was full of dread.
He was a good man; I learned to live with it. ( but was so stressed.)By the time he started losing a lot of weight he didn't live a long time afterwards.
If he starts sun downing, wandering away from the house in the middle of the night, I solved it by giving him 10 mgs. of Melatonin at 4pm. and again at 9pm .The only time he wandered again was when my son forgot to give him his first dose until 6pm. He had Lewey Body disease. He had care from a psychiatrist that helped him some.
