This is interesting, i haven't read much yet about a mental-thyroid link... I specifically remember telling hubby I felt "stupid" and fuzzy, easily confused and experiencing short term memory difficulties.
All of which were making me paranoid, since I work in a very fast paced workplace and I have always prided myself in being a "smartypants" ... lol

but I noticed it seems to be linked more with HYPO than Hyper,
"Too little (hypothyroidism) can cause ... sluggishness, as well as depression, inability to concentrate and memory problems."

What kind of mental symptoms are typically linked to Hyper, then??

Great article altoclef...I'm going to post this in GDGI. We Graves Disease patients have know the link between the thyroid and anxiety and depression. Its really nice to know that the medical community is starting to address this. Big Hugs and many thanks...if you come across anymore studies that make this link please post them...Kathy

Kathy- Thomas Geracioti, who is referred to in this article has published lots. He is a psychoneuroendocrinologist (that's a mouthful!) who has published extensively, and I found links to lots of his writings on Google. Here's the link to one specifically about hyperthyroidism:
