Im a full time carer for my wife who has frontotemperal Dementia. I had to take early retirement in 2015 to look after her. I am not looking for general information I have already have all the information with regards to services available and the financial aspects. Im interested in how people cope on a daily basis, what they can do or cant do with the person they care for. I can take her for short walks, out to local cafes and restaurants and in the car for drives out

This should be an all across the board thing no matter what country you reside in, but as a person providing care to someone youre entitled to beaks, or respite where someone and/ or a facility can care for your loved on while you take that time to either so errands or implement some self care.

No one should be taking care of another person for 24/7/365 with no decent breaks.

Your mental health comes first, if you Taney able to take care of you- who will you take care of? * +

There's quite a lot of jobs currently available in the care sector and it's not just order people needing assistance. * +

Go to the bottom of the link page

These (''Free'') courses are usually available from most county councils and if nothing else, they're something super for your CV
You'll gain a NCFE Level 1 Award in Preparing to Work in Adult Social Care.

The link I posted is only for Derbyshire residents, but your own council will be offering the same or better. * +

You're a strong person, and I'm sure if your wife had the ability to communicate with you (I'm not sure if she does) she would be highly proud of you and cherish everything, even others that are related to you and know you might too...don't give up on your loved ones and on dark gloomy days do not let it get you down in anyway, you will be rewarded for all of it so be patient and things will get better. * +

Im in Oz and my village where I live is a dementia friendly community. I am also a carer for the aged and work in the community. When asking for help with your services dont hold back. Remember, the squeaky wheel gets the oil. Maybe ask for help via your local political office. All avenues. Also try music at home. Music is a language that doesnt need words x *
