My husband is experiencing hallucinations relating to bugs in everything he eats or cooks. He says he can taste them, feel them, and smell them. He says they are inside his body. As his caregiver, I'm trying to cope with this but the anxiety and stress this causes me is overwhelming. He wants someone to literally check a stool sample for bugs. Any suggestions would be so helpful.
I've seen other posts that suggest similar methods. I like the chewable bug pill! If possible get a can of "air" they sell for computers and spray it around calling it bug spray. Another alternative is just an air freshener (maybe dress them up to look like bug sprays!)
My advice is to go along with "checking" the stool sample. If you want to say the bugs are showing up dead - maybe that will assure him he is ok. My spraying the house periodically seemed to calm my DH down.
And look to your local community for support groups, discussions, and by getting time for yourself - so important. Remeber you are not alone in this - we are here with you.
