Hello Raffles
A warm welcome to Talking Point
I can certainly identify with how you feel apart from the fact that my husband is not on any medication.
I don't know, but it is possible, that if you didn't feel angry you would feel depressed. My suggestion is to respect your feelings 'whatever' they are and try to find help for yourself. One of failings I have when things are 'out of control' is to 'blame' and it is the 'blaming' element of the anger that is not helpful at all.
The things that have helped me to redirect my feelings of anger away from my husband is to get better help for myself. The carers support group run by the local branch of the Alzheimers Society was a good place for me and also Talking Point. I think the most helpful thing I learnt from these places was that I cannot change the illness but I have to change myself. Nobody actually said this but I began to understand this. I couldn't do anything about the illness but I could do something about myself and I could stop 'blaming' my husband and start chanelling the blame to where some of it belonged. I then blamed the consultant for giving me totally inadequate advice and the services for being inadequate and creating more and more stress by not performing good enough at basic levels (like returning a phone call)!!! This kind of blaming has produced positive results in helping to provide a better service - hopefully to everyone and not just me.
This all was a very long process and I don't want to give the impression that it was quick and simple. Talking Point was, and is, the most perfect kind of support for me because it is always there. I can 'talk' to people at the drop of a hat and I can listen to everyone else at any time. To me it is like a community centre that is accessible 24/7.
I hope I haven't 'talked' too much Raffles and I'll finish by saying that I sincerely hope that you find the right kind of support for you and your situation.
Love
