I am with you all and I needed this group this morning. My husband said his life had gone to hell in a hand basket and our conversation went downhill from there. His impairment fluctuates and right now it is great. But he has gone back to saying that everything would be fine if he could just drive. And get a job. And then I could retire.
He never understands the full situation. I spent the rest of my morning free time doing stuff for him.
I did not work out, I am crying, I feel like I am in a black hole. And now I have to start my work day while he is enjoying watching an old movie.
Since he cannot do anything else because he cannot drive.
He could do something/ but he will not take any of my suggestions and then blames me for not listening to his needs.
Thank you all for allowing me to vent with you.

I am praying constantly.
I needed this reminder for self-care.
