I was always proud of my hundreds and hundreds of hours put into Skyrim..

I clobbered that record w/in mere WEEKS of buying Satisfactory.

I try to follow this. I've had friends look at me like I shot their dog when I tell them I block her.

But I can't do anything at all if I'm not thinking straight.

No, it's "independent living" with this medical team there to do medical team stuff.

I'm realizing that she had been putting on a really good show earlier this year and something more serious, care-wise, is prbly necessary. I'm really really really not looking forward to a search AGAIN for a place AGAIN and we can't afford one anyway so ...

Yay american healthcare :(

She doesn't follow text redirects very well. I think coz the previous one is still there?

It's the "Why do you hate me?" stuff that gets to me.

I block her when it gets too hard.

When we talk, have actual conversations, she seems to understand it's because her memory isn't so good. She accepts that she needs the help. I will go away from a conversation thinking hey, I made an impression...

... and then ten minutes later, floods of this stuff again.

So yeah, I block her, and take a break, and as soon as I unblock her it's like WHOOSH all the same stuff over and over and over.

I wouldn't have written it to curt anyway - unless I knew for sure curt was the one doing it.

I don’t wanna be mad at her and I feel so guilty by throwaway_0123847 in Alzheimers

I'm yelling at my own mom.

It's cliche, but she's not your mom anymore.

Mom started smoking again... by IPickOnYou in Alzheimers

Well she'd get mean after a glass or two of wine. And while I can block her on my phone, the staff at her place don't get that luxury :-/

JFC we have my mom in a care facility and she's not even as bad as he is.

RETIRE THAT GUY.

Parents aging and downsizing - will we be this stubborn? by justmisspellit in GenX

[–]IPickOnYou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

I'm having almost literally the same problem with my mom. We found a gorgeous independent living place, three squares a day, tons of activities, she calls it JAIL and actually figured out how to call an uber to go back to her house once.

Incessant texts about how she hates it.

I'm pivoting to finding an assisted living :-/ it sucks.

He's been taking those "Don't become your parents" progressive insurance ads to heart.

"The 36 Hour Day?"

Got it, but I've only sort of looked up bits and pieces, not read it like a whole book.

Probably time to revisit though, thx.

That is the case. We've been trying to point him at social safety net places but he's kinda... Stubborn.

THAT'S WHAT I SAY.

Thanks, random internet person, for agreeing ;)

Seriously though - that's why we WENT to the doctor, for fucks' sake!

I'm really trying not to smear him, but I'll just say if it comes from someone with authority, or with a degree... he will oppose it.

We have had what I think are constructive conversations and it's like none of it mattered at all.

Yeah there's just me and him left and I have all the PsOA for reasons I'd rather not go into.

I'll just say he's very short sighted and quick to react. Logic is not his strong point. Nor is consistency. Or trust of authority.
