I don't know what to make of it or do with it (if anything)...
M seems overly anxious/concerned about sounds/voices that he can't place...like he wants to make sure that the rest of us heard them too and that we know where the sound was coming from. (did that make any sense? LOL) For instance, if we're all sitting in the kitchen eating dinner and the TV is on in the living room and there's a sound on the TV from a commercial, M will sort of startle, look at us, and say, "Did you hear that?" and we'll say, "Yes." and then he needs us to confirm what it was.
He's never been like this before (i.e. before coming home from his last psychiatric hospital admit). And, I wouldn't say noises in general are bothering him, it's just displaced noises...noises he can't readily explain. So, my first thought was...does HE think he's hearing things? So, I tried to casually pry to see if he was maybe hearing other sounds, but it doesn't sound like he is.
I would have thought that the combo of Celexa and Seroquel would be lowering his anxieties (and for the most part :::knock on wood::: things ARE doing really well around here), but this one component is new and magnified. It just seems a little odd.
What would you do with this?
