bobbisedmayr - Thank you for your input. Anger, yep. Some days all day. I even have a song about that anger that I sing in my mind. It goes like this: Oh, It's anger in the morning, anger in the evening, anger at suppertime, he's so angry, angry...... just angry all the time. I sang it to him one day and he stopped dead still and looked at me. Are you talking about me, he asked. My one word response - Yep. The anger toned down for a little bit, but it's back. (I might try for a repeat performance next time he's over the top angry.)
I'm right there with you on everything is my fault. Of course everything is our fault's, that way they can pretend that they're perfect. They do know something is off and they do NOT want to claim it. I do have my husband on a good regimen of vitamins and supplements including Ashwagandha, which I also take. Look into that one if your not taking something to help yourself. A friend told me about it. I researched it and liked what I found. What I can remember from when I was researching it was that it's old as the hills, helps with energy production, immune support and mood and stress management. I can use all of the one's mentioned. I don't know what this zoloft is that you mention, but I'll look it up. I'm guessing that it's a prescription drug? We don't have a lot of experience with those.
As you know, taking care of ourselves can be a struggle....where's the time? My favorite tool for getting my frustrations out of my system is walking the treadmill. I can do that and still keep an ear on what my husband is up to. An added bonus is that he typically wants it after I'm done. Monkey see, monkey do. That doesn't sound exactly right, but it is so true these days. You and I are leading, we've taken over pretty much everything. Husband's are here and can help with simple tasks, just don't expect them to manage anything too complicated, correct?
Thank you for the well wishes, I hope you are going to have a good day today!
Its nice to be able to talk to someone who “gets it”.
Thanks I will try ashwanda. I believe I have heard of it. This summer I swam laps. I am able to leave my husband yet. Now I will go back to walking. And I agree that is what helps with all the frustrations of the “life with lewy”!
I hope you have a great day too! Thanks for the suggestions.
