Please help!

I had to google "delirium" to be sure I knew what it meant. from the first hit of Wikipedia, i didn't see any thing under definition or symptom that I have not seem in my Wife with the majority before the onset of involentary movements and loss of motor skills

Is there a particulair symptom

I don't get it, you didn't know hd involves confusion? that's a ton of what hd is about, but I can understand you would find it shocking

No, I do know about confusion, it's more like it comes on suddenly then disappears...anyway, I believe it's attributed to
coming off of benzo's, etc. which he has done..I talked with a psychiatrist and they will be giving him different meds.
It was such a sudden difference from his normal behavior. Thanks for responding.
