Hi could someone please help me Peter is talking about things I don't know what he's on about is this normal, he has just started to do it. I am so frightened I don't know what he is going to do next one minute he seems ok then he changes, he kept saying that someone had stuck a nice in him and he had blood everywhere I told him they haven't but he said you don't know then he went on about something else.

If things are really difficult tonight can you phone the emergency mental health team in your area? You do sound like you both need help now. You could phone 111 and ask them to advise you. Don't put either of you at risk, if you need emergency help. Best wishes x
Check out for a uti as soon as you can
Phone 111 for support.
Please keep yourself safe
if you don't feel safe
go to another room with a phone
if he "kicks off" call the police. They have the experience of how to deal with these kinds of situation

Hello christmas, so sorry you are so worried and frightened, if possible could you call the out of hours doctor or an ambulance as Peter may have an infection which is making him feel and see things that are not there, above all please if possible make sure you have a safe room you can lock yourself in together with your mobile phone, as Peter may get more confused, especially as he thinks he has been attacked, infections combined with dementia can be so frightening for both of you and you are doing the right thing in keeping him calm but please put your safety first.

Thank you everyone Peter calmed down and is asleep you have helped me a lot because I didn't know I could phone people ,you have made me calmer I am doing my best to deal with this ,but I have a lot to learn and fined out this is the first time this has happen and I got worried he said he felt poorly but.he says that every day and I know he's ok ,,but today he' would not get dressed I will see how he is tomorrow. Thank you so much Christmas
I'm glad your husband calmed down Christmas. I think it's a good idea to get him checked for an infection. A UTI can result in strange behaviour.
