Dear Sofia, you helped me today to come out of a really dark place. We had to transfer my dad into a care home 11 months ago because of his Parkinsons disease. He has not dementia, so he is pretty much the only inhabitant there with a clear mind. He suffers a great deal of loneliness and grief and misses my mom and his home. I grieved with him and I even felt the pressure on my chest so much that I developed a chronic bronchitis. I felt so guilty that it overshadowed my days and my relationships. I'm so grateful for your insight, your kindness and compassion. I realized today that my feelings are quite normal and that it's not helpful to suppress them and act normal. By feeling them, understanding them and being kind to myself, I can see getting myself out of this depressing state I'm in. So cheers to you and your amazing work.
My mom is mean to me we never had a good relationship and I'm her caregiver. social worker notice our relationship how my mother treated me and she talk to her and nothing has change.I don't wanna be a caregiver to her anymore.
Taking care of someone you never got along with makes the stress 10X worse. Sofia has the ability to make it sound pleasant but I know I am going to mentally and physically deteriorate.
