It feels to me as though my mother sucks all the air out of the room. I either feel sorry for her or wish her dead. Does anyone else feel this way. I haven't had a good night's sleep since she arrived. The combination is driving me and my husband crazy.
Sleep deprivation is probably the biggest problem that hinders coping.
I've taken her to a Dr. for meds to help her sleep but the anti-psychotic that was perscribed kept her awake at night. I only tried it for 2 nights. The problem was I had just enrolled her in a day care program for 2 days a week, prepaid of course and was anxious to have her go because I needed some time to myself. I often feel that no matter what I do or what works for others just doesn't work for us. I'm very tired.
