Venting is absolutely necessary. Beyond venting, I would suggest trying to find other ways as well to make your life less stressful. Some states have respite programs and/or other types of assistance for situations like yours. Dementia is a terrible condition, and often the caregiver’s health suffers more than the person with dementia. As I said, do whatever you can to take care of yourself.

@tsch -you are so right! My husband is following in his sister’s path of MCI into Alzheimer’s…and his sister’s “healthy-ish” husband passed away just 3 days after she did. We all have to do things to help us stay health (as possible)! Take good care!
