After some many sleepless nights with Robert coming into me nearly every 10 minutes or so from around 1.30 am I just don't think I can carry on much longer.
This afternoon my Son and I have an appointment with our GP regarding this situation. I know the answer will probably be to get Robert into Respite for a short time to let me try and get back to normal. I am so concerned he won't want to go, he didn't even want to stay at our Sons house 10 days ago. Also what happens when he returns from say Respite. Up to now he is not aggressive at all. But has big fears of when the Carers come at 9 pm he knows he must go to bed and gets into quite a state. He is always calling for me and I feel I will let him down.
Up to now I have tried to be positive but at the moment everything is black and I can't see a light at the end of the tunnel. I have lost any interest in looking after the house, cooking etc everything is to much of an effort. When the weather is good I do like to walk.
Sorry I am moaning so much but know TP is the place I can do it.
Hoping to hear from someone disi x
