Thyriod problems, Parasomnia or just plain depression?
Sorry I posted something similar a bit ago, but the more I think about it.. the more I am concerned. My fiance has been on Lexapro for almost 3 weeks now, for depression. The doctors wanted to take blood work and test for Thyroid problems which run in his family because they want to make sure this isn’t the cause for his depression. He has a lot of the signs of having Hyperthyroidism (Heat intolerance, sweating a lot, pink/red skin, racing heart, ect) but he also has signs of Parasomnia (hitting, talking, ect) during sleep and waking me up. I read Parasomnia can be caused by stress and depression as well. So, I was just worried. What do you think it could be?
