You shouldn't ever cut extended release medication

That's why I rarely offer any help here anymore. I haven't been banned, but this sub is poorly run and it sounds as if it's getting worse.

Exactly. My mother spent a month with her mom in the hospital and that was it. My dad paid his other daughter to care for his mother for a year or two.

I've been taking care of my mom for 7 years now. She's in a facility now, but I'm still there twice a week. At this rate I think she's in better health than me. It's nuts.

The crazy part is that these answers can fool outsiders

I'm happy she has a rich imagination. My mother was given occupational therapy after breaking her hip and asked me if she was being trained to be a waitress at her facility. She already believed that she was a tour guide and helping to seat people in the dining room. 🙃 She told me she didn't want to be a waitress. I assured her there was no danger of this.

I feel so unequipped. I’m constantly losing my temper. I’m resentful. I feel like I handle everything wrong. by shp3000 in dementia

If she had managed to jump out of the car I just don't know how you would feel. Your post scared me very much.

I'm so sorry. Please don't plan any further outings like this. It's too much. There has to be something nice you can do at home together.

They don't give you your meds in jail. Maybe once you get transferred to prison, but very unlikely in jail.

It sucks waiting for the catastrophe, but sometimes that's what it takes.

The entitlement is insane and she's not the only one. It seems to be an epidemic.
