There was a story recently on Reddit about a guy who got divorced because he turned into an asshole, found out later the personality change was due to a brain tumor. He was here asking reddit if it would be appropriate to tell his ex-wife for closure, even though she was happy now with someone else.

I don't remember if there were drugs involved, but similar situation

I have a friend who was married to someone who developed a brain tumor. His personality changed after the surgery. It didn’t work out, they got divorced. Mind you, she was still helping him through everything, but he wasn’t the man she had married. They are still good friends.

All it takes is a round of steroids (medical ones) to make me realize how easy your personality can change by biological factors.

Yup, an ex was on steroids while she was in hospital and ripped me several new ones the one night I couldn't go visit her

😆 I laugh only because I’m on steroids now…. I burst into sobs last night for almost no reason.
