I too struggle greatly with jar and container lids. I always use rubber grips, image attached. These open jar lids and also aseptic or gable top cartons. If that doesn’t work, running a jar lid under hot water and then using the grips usually works.

You might benefit from doing an internet search. I have hand tremors and there are all sorts of tips and gadgets I’ve found.

Best wishes! Athena

Ya hot water, beating them on a counter if I can...sometimes I just have to wait. I will Google and see what else I can find. Thank you!
