    I also feel that this is what my husband and I are experiencing. It has become very difficult to discuss anything. No matter how small or trivial, it will send him into stress mode and an argument. Have tried many ways of approaching discussions, none of which have worked. I am afraid of causing him stress and anxiety, but I am becoming frustrated as how to deal with decisions he needs to be a part of. He can not even stand to be with a group of people, even family.

    I do not fully understand what people mean when they say “ON” and “OFF” times. Can someone explain this to me?

    I would gladly try dealing with decisions in any way that would help!!!

    Hello, may i ask you about DBS. My husband is on the waiting list for DBS but he is waiting for the neurological psychologist interview. Apparently all hinges on this outcome. Do you think you could possibly tell us what this test entails. IS it over a few days what are they looking for, what are they interested in? We have general meeting tonight with people who have had this surgery but want ted to know anything you may help us with if you wouldn’t mind.

    Thank you for your time.
