Overwhelmed

Posted by virtuous69 @virtuous69, Oct 10, 2022

Hi Victorious69 here.
Have a laundry list of issues and need to talk. Recently rejoined Connect.
Basically I don't want to get out of bed to face a new day. I feel like I have no future and have to work hard to pull myself up to get going.
Besides my physical 24/7 issues, my 84 yr old husband is starting early on set dementia. He can't hear me and refuses to wear his hearing aids they itch his ears. He frequently screams at me. I can't take it. He cannot walk more than a few feet with his walker due to PAD pain. We both are prayer people. Will try to get into each discussion group that meets our particular needs. Realize this is a discussion group for exchange of healthful ideas and not a place to gripe.But I really need to vent.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Just Want to Talk Support Group.

Thank you for your advice, and I wish you well. When you are finished with your business there, I'd like to touch base again if you don't mind to hear a bit more about your experience, if you're ok with it. I'll leave the ball in your court. In the meantime, I hope all is as well as you hope for if not more

I just got home from Mayo. It was a very productive visit. My illnesses are improving, so that was good news:)
I hope you schedule your pcp visit soon. Also, might I suggest you go see a psychologist? I'm suggesting this because of all the stressful events that have recently experienced. Even Superman would be overwhelmed.
Take care and keep me posted:)
