Just for aging or caregiver for chronically ill partner?

I am the only caregiver to partner who has diabetes, mental health issues and other health issues. I also run our 21 yr old daughter back and forth to college and work. I am physically beat. B-12 level is good as is thyroid levels. PvP thinks it is just all I am having to do for my family. I try to get my needs met but rarely does it happen.

Thanks for the reply, Pam. I still have to teach her how to drive. She plans on talimg the permit part soon amd them i can start teaching her. The last time ahe teies to dribe she ce.within a few feet of running into a house! I was not teaching her at that point. Sje has to drive with me for 6 months before getting her license as per y insurance guy. That wpuld put it in November before she can start driving alone.

You are suffering from supermom syndrome. It might help if you tell daughter to get her own car with her paycheck. It would help a lot if you pull back and focus on your own health first and foremost.
