Someone to have a lucid conversation with: Anyone just want to talk?

The continual repetition of same old questions is about more than I can take, anymore ! I wish I could get out of this ! He sits and tells me what to do, while he is just sitting, or sleeping, and I have been taking solo care of everything for so long, now. I feel like just nobody to him.

@dederickve I am so sorry you are going through this. My DH has passed on but I remember well the feelings you are expressing. I do know it helped me to get someone in for a few hours twice a week. It wasn't cheap but she was more of a companion than a caregiver. She could listen to him so I could disengage for a bit, ultimately, getting out for coffee with friends or just running errands.
Is there anyone who can give you a break? It's not much but it really does help.
Here's hoping you get some relief soon.
