i am not sure i am experiencing burn out but i am tired all the time. i keep thinking something is wrong with me but no one is really listening to me i do not think. i do in fact need a break from the 24/7 care of my Mother. i am having such a hard time getting someone in that will do her medications too. i do not want to go to T or to clay class, or make anything, or play games on-line. All i want to do is sleep.
Get help. Yes i know this, but my Mother will not share her financial information with the city run agency for the aging, and i do not have enough to pay for the care myself.
Okay...
Got to go to bed now...Early doctor's visit at 8 AM.
Will work on finding a way to pay for the care myself...maybe try selling some of my art as a beginning.

I hear you! but I am new and my posts don't come thru yet. I so relate. Been there - done that, with ex who had a stroke & became abusive - 8 yrs until I could get away. Ended up in hosp. As long as I was there & there was $$ no help would be provided. I send you lots of hugs and recognition of the situation you have found yourself in.

My Mom is next. I am glad to have had this experience. I will do things MUCH differently - once I take on responsibility..She will get no further help

Wow... where are you from? If you're in socal literally tell me. Yeah I hear you I'm helping out my girlfriends grandma this way too... I felt that emotional pressure crushing me and peeling every slice of morale away.

Keep in touch with me, I'm happy to talk to anyone. Sleep when you can, I'm sorry your mom is in such a predicament.. ihss will pay for you and respite as well... again I'm so sorry. I send you much love.
