I want to scream, I want to cry, I want to shout, I want to protest, I want to laugh, I want to have a husband who can understand the stress I am under.
I was just beginning to feel pleased that I was managing things very well when tonight just before a client session, Alan manages to escape from the sitter and is heading towards the therapy room I manage to alert the sitter and re-inform him that I cannot be interrupted whilst working.
My client arrives and during the last 15 minutes, I can sense an unease because of movement outside the room. When my client goes, the sitter informs me that it has took him all his time to keep Alan contained I want to SCREAM.
I end up saying to Alan that I want him to live here in his home for as long as possible but if this continues he will have to go to another home It seems he understood what I was saying and said as clearly as anything "it won't happen again" I want to CRY.
Yesterday I went shopping and forgot where I'd parked the car. Another worrying symptom of 'something' I spent ages trying to find it and being convinced that it had been stolen. Eventually I remembered I'd parked it somewhere else.
Tomorrow is the carer's support group but unless I can feel a bit better I won't be going. The last time I went I brought up the issue of the sitter and he ended up instantly dismissed. I can't possibly go with another problem
There is no readjustment that I can make anymore about working - it will mean a drastic decision and I really do not want this to happen I am so fed up again
