I'm just done with being able to take care of my parents. I can't do it any more. They, everyone but me and my few friends, seem to think I should be able to because I don't have a job (bipolar and even on disability), am not raising kids (they're grown and with my ex, poor dears or out on their own), but they just don't get it. I've been doing this almost two years and suicidal about it for 12 months, because I just can't do it. Physically I'm equipped, but that's where it ends. My sister has been helping since just before I went into hospital, but she's not physically strong enough, and is starting to see the mental toll for herself. Her husband has never had a job, because he's on the spectrum, and helps sometimes only. His parents, mom especially, is getting to where she bears watching now too. If I can't do a job, which is obvious I can't, why are they expecting so much? They've, the other siblings included, all been told I can't do it by myself. My parents finally started to look for help. They've not done so for this long even though they had Brain trust money they could have used, and just let it go back to the system.
There's only so much a person has and can do. My limits are surpassed already
