I too feel tired and I think it’s more emotional and psychological than physical. I have had to make another adjustment over the past week or two as he has worsened physically and mentally. He hardly goes out at all now and has become an ‘invalid’, not an actual one but behaves as if he is. I can leave him for a walk or for shopping as long as I am not out too long, so as he has got worse, my life has got a little easier because he is in his bed where he is safe. It’s a case of accepting that I am alone even though he is there. Yes I now accept that he is handicapped and continually have to make small changes in my behaviour because he can’t and I try to avoid angst.
Like you
@maryjoan I find going into real world and back to wonderland very disorienting. I don’t cry much but certain things bring on that huge bursting emotional feeling and I sob. That seems to release the pressure.
