My wife has been having bouts with depression and paranoia. She was admitted to the hospital and just released. At 54, the Dr. doesn't want to diagnose early onset dementia, but based on what I have been reading, that is what she has. My question is how do you handle watching the one you love crash, or be helped by drugs that leave her with a flat affectation? I see the person I married occasionally, but mostly someone else (either paranoid or no emotion at all). I retired last year, and I thank god that I have been here for her, but 25-30 years of this with it only getting worse is a daunting task.
Has anyone else dealt with this and what did you do for your own mental health?
