The neurological symptoms listed in the article are almost identical to Lyme disease when the bacteria colonize in the CNS.

Brain fog and psychosis are very troublesome. I would fly into a rage for no reason - at least as far as normal people were concerned. In reality, the lyme bacteria was causing my brain to be inflamed which in turn would cause panic attacks, rage, inky black depression. My thinking was very muddled.

I would lose words. One day I was trying to describe the color of something. The color was one of the basic 8. It was warm, bright, joyous. I could see it in my mind, but I had no idea what it was called. The word I was looking for was yellow, but it was just gone from my vocabulary.

My spelling became messed up. The word believe turned into belivieveier. I never use to have issues with this prior to Lyme. Even though I am much better now, I think that the bacteria caused some brain damage that has not healed, yet. Issues with spelling and word searching still remain though to a much lesser degree.

If your family members are dealing with this from a psychosis standpoint, they may not even be aware of the fact that they are perceiving reality falsely. Until I was diagnosed, I only had occasional inklings that something was amiss.
