My husband has been ill for 5 years but was only diagnosed last year. He is 55 years old and has Fronto temporal dementia. He has semantic dementia and can barely understand anything I say now and he can't say things well as much of his vocabulary is gone. I'm 45 and am struggling most of the time but particularly at the moment. I am resentful of the situation I am in and want my life back, my life feels like a living hell with no escape. I feel like I live in a cycle of anger, guilt and frustration. I can barely spend time in his company at the moment due to being so annoyed by him and my lack of patience. What angers me on top of this is his obsession with alcohol. It's getting worse and he's having at least 2 drinks a night, usually at home but always asking me to go to the pub, which I don't want to do or being obsessed about when he can go out with friends. He doesn't accept it makes him worse as he says it relaxes him. When he comes home drunk he is 3000 times more annoying and I end up just getting angry and trying to get him to just go to bed out of my way but he insists he isn't drunk and keeps trying to talk. I then feel guilty for shouting once he finally goes to bed. I don't think this is ever going to end, is he just going to get more and more obsessed and keep drinking or wanting to drink more? He's always been a pub man but never had a drink every night before now. He's cut down on the amount he drinks when he's out as it takes him a lot less to get drunk but he still sometimes has to be walked home by someone due to the amount he's had. I don't know what to do about it?how to control my anger when he comes home drunk or wants a drink at an 'inappropriate' time? Is this alcohol obsession going to get worse because if so I'm not sure I can cope. Anyone else experienced or experiencing something similar?
