Hi, first time ive visited this site...out of desperation! Help! Someone talk to me please.. Am I going mad too... I am at my wits end.
My father is 57 and in the mid-stages. He thinks there's nothing wrong, looks normal. He even tried to re-wire the Christmas lights today... panic panic, arguments, shouting, tantrums etc for 2 hours before he finally admitted he hadn't a clue what he was trying to do (electrocute himself)!!
Mum lives with him, and I am already a carer for my husband! However she is not very capable and I do all finances, benefits, sort all problems out etc. She has recently been very unwell, in hospital. For five weeks I have been running flat out. I am now mentally and physically exhausted... and don't know how I will cope when she goes back in hospital in January 06. They DO NOT want any outside help, will not entertain others at all or assessments... nikki will do it! I have tried to explain that I can't carry on, but they wont listen.
I feel so guilty. Any advice please.....!!! Thanks for listening.
