Psychiatrist says my husband has dementia but shows symptoms of various types, memory loss is not apparent. I am weary. Lots of broken nights through acting out dreams, hallucinations, answering the door to none existent visitors. He tells me before doing anything, emptying the bin , exercise bike, having shower, watching TV. I work in my art studio, converted bedroom and he pops in every 20 minutes to see how I am. He's very anxious about paying bills ,the cost of food and fuel, our middle aged daughters and grandchildren. All of which are fine. He thinks people are in our home and sometimes that we are in an hotel. I love him dearly and have been married 53 years but the constant reassurance and his "needy" disposition are making me want to say "just go away".
It would make me feel less guilty if others sometimes feel this way.Thanks
