Struggling forward

[ourcynic]

I’m caring for an autistic son, a grandparent with dementia, a mother with schizophrenia and a daughter who just tried to commit suicide. Sometimes this is just exhausting. I will never give up, but it’s so frustrating sometimes when it’s always out of your control.

You need to talk to your GP and arrange some assistance and help with the situation you find yourself in. In the UK they have Day Centres for helpers to give them relief from the concerns you have
