    • Close Dementia

      Mom and dad were married 65 years and a year 1/2 ago she died suddenly . Six months ago my dad was diagnosed with Dementia. Between the rages , abuse, memory loss, depression , and be blamed for things I don`t do or say. I am to say the least having a really bad time. I have been very ill psychiatrically thru my life and have just started to do well. I have no support from my sisters and lots of threats. He DRIVES! I live with him . I welcome any support I can get here .Thank you !

    • Close Sexual Abuse

      I have had multiple sexual abuses both within and outside of my family. I am just coming out of a lifetime of clinical depressions , hospitalizations, shock treatments etc. and am starting to feel pretty good. Unfortunately I am currently a caretaker with no support for my dementia affected father but i am seeking support.I am single a very young 58. I want to deal with this issue as I see clearly now how profoundly it has affected my life.
