My mother has been with me for 7 years and now she said she cannot stay with me anymore, because she thinks my husband wants to kill her ,she didn't say she hearing voices ,just wake up in the morning and ask my husband why are you disturbing me at night please leave me alone . and says my husband spray something in her food that is why she had serious stomach pain, that he spray in her bed ,shoes , cloths. that when she put on the cloths her body icheses sometimes she ask me to try the clothe on ,so I can believe what she is saying I know something is wrong but what I really want to help her ,she left my place and when back to Africa ,I was told she lose more weight and cannot hear very well. insisting that she saw my husband spraying on her .she saw a watch by her bed and said my husband put a knife to kill her,since she donot want to come to my place I am thinking of how to convince her so she can come see her doctor. I told her we are sorry my husband is not going to spray anymore she told the did had been do because she is very sick now. She said the spay is very powerful that the doctors cannot noticed she is so convinced that husband is responsible for all her sick ,she stay indoors most of the time even in after she is always indoors.
She should be evaluated and tested.
Medications for the paranoia can help with some forms of dementia but in others some medications can be problematic so is it important to get an accurate diagnosis.
She has suffered severe stomach pain. Her skin itches. She has lost weight. She is apparently also suffering delusions which lead her to believe that the OP's husband has been plotting to kill her in various ways. These are all very distinct clinical signs of there being something seriously, medically wrong.
Destiny, you say your mother has "gone back to Africa" - where is she now, and where are you?
If your mother really believes that her ailments are the result of your husband's (imaginary) actions, it will be difficult to get her to a doctor because she will have no confidence that the doctors can do anything for her. But would she perhaps listen to a responsible pastor or minister, who would tell her firmly that first of all she needs to find out what trouble is being caused in her body so that the best way to deal with it can be worked out?
