How Do Caregivers Deal With Their Own Anger & Frustration Issues?

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­
Ottawa, ON

I find myself snapping at my spouse much too often. It was worse at the beginning & I am slowly finding ways to deal with those issues. Hopefully I will find more strength to help him as the disease progresses.

Thanks KTwo! Sorry for the late reply - I took some time off PD for a few days. So, yes, I have joined a support group and, obviously, this online group. That has helped. As for exercise, he does not like to leave the house. There is a very good program on YouTube entitled ā€œItā€™s Your Choiceā€. He does the warm-up section daily and whenever I can, I accompany him (itā€™s good for me too šŸ˜Š). Bottom line, I am getting the hang of this thing and getting better at navigating through the frustrations and the irritating mannerisms of his changing personality due to his PD. That is what I would wish him to do were I in his place.
