I am very sorry to hear that Marley is not himself since the wat mite infection. I would be concerned about a couple of causes for these changed in he attitude but not of a chemical imbalance. I believe that Marley could be in pain or could be suffering from a loss of hearing. Either would make her more sensitive and frightened. I would advise having her examined by a veterinarian to rule out either of these causes.
