Hello
@Tfjala
First of all, welcome to the forum. I know how you feel and I’m sure you will receive many replies from others in the same boat. My husband was diagnosed last September and it was all a bit overwhelming at first. This forum has helped me a great deal, so I would advise you to keep checking in and don’t be afraid to ask questions.
I’m finding it useful to keep a diary of ‘incidents’ and the changes in my husbands behaviour. A friend of mine whose father had Alzheimer’s recommended I do it and In a strange way, writing things down helps me ‘offload’ at the end of the day, plus I have useful examples for healthcare professionals if I need it further down the line.
Good luck on your journey, don’t be afraid to ask for help and take it if offered. If you are able to leave your husband on his own for an hour or so, do it now and have some time for yourself because things can change very quickly.
I value the time with my friends because they are very supportive and allow me to vent & I always feel better afterwards.
Sorry, I’ve just realised I’m rambling!
