I'm not sure if there is already such a thread but I have come on here simply to stop myself from screaming and tearing my hair out.
I look after my mum who has Alzheimer's at home and while most days are fairly manageable the disease is definitely marching on. I also work part time (from home thankfully) and have my two DS (16&20). I try to be patient and my faith helps a lot but sometimes I just could do with sharing with someone who is going through similar, to share frustrations together but also laugh together and share coping strategies so that I don't lose my own mental health! So, I wondered if anyone out there felt the same.
For example, I never quite know what I am going to get when I go down to mum's room in the morning. This morning she is crying 'help! help!' and I though it was an emergency. She was just imagining that something was happening and was holding tight on to the bed controls as if that would stop the ceiling caving in. ?♀️
I've got another 'keen'... Ouch!
