Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] I suspect my mom has dementia. I have shared with her doctor her mood swings, her accusing me of stealing her things when she can t find them (she lives with me), expresses that something of hers (that we are not sure ever existed) accuses me or someone else has stolen the item. Her doctor did a simple 10 question cognitive test and she only got 3 things wrong. Therefore, he declared her as not having dementia. He also is not believing me of the symptoms I ve shared with him of her behavior for over a year. I am at my wits end and just don t know what to do for her. You can have a conversation with her and 5 minutes later she doesn t remember a thing about it. Her husband died 2 years ago. I ve asked her doctor if she may be depressed and could he prescribe something for her. He has repeated ignored this request. Any suggestions?
[|AI|]  Hello thanks for asking from Chat Doctor for your health related queries can understand your concern. She has performed good on Cognitive Tests, so grossly we can rule out dementia as cause of her symptoms. She is showing symptoms like accusing you for stealing things, mood swings, forgetfulness and these symptoms can occur in depression. History of loss of her husband has probably aggravated her symptoms. I would advise you to take her to a psychiatrist for evaluation of her symptoms. Accusing you of stealing things could be occurring due to auspiciousness and this needs treatment. Medicines like Duloxetine, Venlafaxine can help her in coming out of depression and these symptoms of auspiciousness. Visit a psychiatrist for prescription of Chat Doctor. Thanks, hope this helps you. Take Care
