Caregiver Burnout

Hi, I am 57 soon to be 58. I have been taking care of my mother for 30 years. She has never been mentally stable and she is now 84. Things have gotten progressively worse since she turned 80. I’m completely burnt out! I have to pay a sitter almost as much as I make to stay with her when I’m working and I can only work part time. I have a very stressful hospital job as well. I have no life of my own and I am very resentful after all this time… I don’t know how to go about getting her in a nursing facility when she still in her own home in my backyard. Any information, advice would be greatly appreciated. I feel like I’m dying a slow death with no joy in my life…. Please help me…. Thank you
