Probably not- Ive had dreams spill over into real life

Would you mind elaborating on what happened during these incidents?

That on it's own sounds a lot more like something stress related, but you can't really be sure unless you take him to a doctor.

It doesn't sound like it much on it's own, but you might wanna keep an eye on him and take him to a doctor if it gets any worse.

My dad had dementia and it can get really rough. He died of covid before it got bad, but he did got to the point where he would lock people outside right after talking them, forget some less important stuff, and so on. It wasn't too bad, but it definitely wasn't pleasant either.

I hope you don't have to go through that with your father TC.

I'm sorry your dad went through that. And I'm sorry your dad died of Covid. Heart goes out to you man. May he RIP.

I'd also go one step further and get him to take a sleep study as well. A couple years ago I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. Sleep Apnea can affect your memory and leave you confused if your not getting enough sleep during the night. I would go to bed at 12, and even by 9 I only actually slept 1/2 hr, so I was constantly forgetting things, getting confused. Yes, most of the time it has to do with weight, but there are cases where skinny people just don't sleep properly, and when you don't get enough REM sleep, your mind starts to play tricks on you.

I didn't even consider sleep apnea. This is very valuable info to me. Thank you.
