Stress Discussions

Does anyone feel like the strongest woman in the world? Until you don't? I feel SO capable, like, hey, I can DO this! Until hell breaks loose.

Well, it's been two weeks with my father-in-law...

I know that everyone is different...

The visit

Mom won't give up her independence. She refuses to heed any advise and will not help me to help her.

I’m at my wits end...funny I thought I was there 8 months ago.

Feeling overwhelmed and unappreciated...

UPDATE: A while back I said Hubs and I reached burn out, asked Dad to move to AL. He's moving!

My father who was my mother's cargiver for years died suddenly recently from an undiagnosed blood cancer.

Mom has a toothache...just venting!

Measuring caregiver stress- I'd like to share this recent experience...

I have read that 40% of caregivers die before the people they are caring for. This may turn out to be true for my parents.

Caring for mother with Vascular Dementia and have young kids -at my wits end.

Help with husband who needs care... affordable!

Caregiver stress and high blood sugar warning...

If you could escape your caregiving duties, where would you go?

My elderly mom is very forgetful & thinks everyone is doing her wrong. INCLUDING ME! HER 24/7 daughter/CAREGIVER for 10yrs.

No question. Just tired.

Do you ever want to run away?

I am so stressed out!!!!!
