My mum has dementia, and has had phases of paranoia where she’s shouting and thinking we are plotting against her. Then other times she hardly talks. The thing is i live with my dad as well as my mum, I have anxiety and depression, my dad has been struggling to come to terms with her condition and is not sleeping well. The point is we are barely speaking to each other, as in conversation. I find it very difficult to initiate conversation, with my depression, I try but neither engage. I worry about her just sitting there reading the paper. The lockdown has made it impossible to actually “talk” to people. I feel guilty like I’m not doing enough. Also because of my depression I feel guilty for thinking of myself. I’m there when she needs me. I’m just feeling really isolated. I’m sorry for the long post and be selfish. Just needed to get some opinion. Or advice. Thanks
