My elderly mother is seeing a psychiatrist for memory problems. Her narcissism is more of an issue though, for now, than dementia. my mom has always had an issue with doctors- acting like she knows more than they do, putting them down, etc. For the last 5 months she has told me, my brother, and my sister, over and over and over, that this doctor prescribed her an opioid. She’s not paranoid. She’s actually lying. It’s very sick. This doctor has an excellent reputation and is smarter than my mother and I think this gets to her.

Is there a point in letting this doctor know what she is saying, and if so, what would be the effect on her treatment? Should I be more concerned for the doctor?
