I'm 29, I moved from Florida about 2 months ago, I'm living with my aunt, I visited with her twice be I moved in with her, but she's very

Aggravating and every time I turn around she's complaining about every little thing I do , she 82 her kids know I'm here but I feel like moving out , I'm starting to think they wanted me here to take care of her

When people get older you need a lot of patience to deal with them, then can be a bit intense. She is probably used to having things her own way. If you can't find a way to compromise with her and get along then maybe moving out is a better choice for you.

I'm trying so very hard , I cry to myself ,because she's driving me crazy, not only that , I don't want her in a nursing home but I don't know

I know you want to take care of her, but sometimes you have to take care of your own sanity. It takes so much patience to take care and deal with the elderly. It's not an easy thing. Just try and tell yourself that it's just her age, try your best not to let it get to you so much.

Here's the thing I didn't move in to take care of her

I am surprised her kids haven't tried to get her a home attendant. Do you live in the US?

[Hidden in reply to Worried-help]

Yes why

[Worried-help in reply to Hidden]

Maybe her kids can try to get her a home attendant that can care for her.

[Hidden in reply to Worried-help]

No idea

hi I remember commenting on your last post about this.i think you need some support for yourself in this matter. caring for a relative is hard I currently help in the care of relative I think the family are probably over relying on you and they should do more to help.you should look up what support there is in your local area not just for your aunt but for you as well.
