Husband hasn't slept in year!
My husband has hyperthyroidism and has had insomnia to the point of feeling like he hasn't slept in literally a year! He is having dementia and aggression from not sleeping to the point of confusion and not even being able to recognize the town he's lived in for 16 years. His memory is jumbling and he's saying things out of order and almost micro sleeping and slow motor skills but also sped up talking and actions at the same time all the time like he's on speed. He lost 63 pounds in a year.
