It's very, very hard to deal with dementia alone never mind all the things you have shared. God bless you for having any patience to deal with all that you are describing. It's no wonder you are thinking about a different career path. I don't think people really appreciate how hard the work is for some caregivers. You are right in that it gets increasingly challenging and more difficult to manage as medications for dementia don't stop the progression of the disease.

Certainly not an easy job for what those who do it have to witness and deal with that progressively gets worse. I am sure it gets scary when someone gets out of control like you describe. Yes, I know that sometimes a patient can get delusional and accuse the caregiver of doing things they are not doing. Sounds like her mind is really going. You must be worn out after your shift with her is over.
