Thanks so much!
If you've been able to talk to him in the past, you can talk to him now.
You can have a conversation without being confrontational.
Do you have reason to be afraid to talk to him?

Thank you, Mari. That's very helpful. He's a real private guy, and he hasn't welcomed conversation with me on this topic in recent months. I'm reluctant to talk to him about it because he gets kind of irritable and shuts down; I'm sure he perceives it as prying... and now that I realize he lied about the meds, he's bound to be defensive, so it's hard to imagine the conversation going smoothly. But no, I can't say I have "reason to be afraid." I think you're right. I'll give it a try. And I'll look into NAMI, too.
I'm very grateful for your compassionate answer. I really needed somebody to tell this to tonight, and you gave me words of wisdom indeed. Thank you.
