If you're taking anything for the constant stress of being a caretaker, did you get if from a medical or psychiatric doctor?
This disease is just grinding me down, especially now that my PALS has reached the point of being functionally quadriplegic and no longer able to communicate without GREAT difficulty.
Nightly sleep has basically become a series of naps over a 7 or 8 hour period. I feel fortunate if I can get an uninterrupted 3 hours sleep. I take every advantage I can of short naps during the day.
If psyc meds will help with the stress, I'm willing to give them a try. Color me exhausted.
