Just a small rant and a piece of advice

I’m rapidly growing tired of adulting. This responsibility stuff is getting pretty heavy.

That being said, hug your parents, have a conversation with them about the future while they are healthy, and count every day without having to deal with dementia as a win.

My daughter is going through this with my wife. She is in care in a good place now, thank goodness. But it has worn my daughter down..
I coped with my wife since well before Covid, but there came a point where I just couldnt cope myself . Now that my wife is in care I am getting around to a few niggling medical issues of my own and guess who I have to rely on for help. Yep. The same daughter..But thats temporary..
I should add that my wife and I took in and cared for both my mother in law and my own mother in their declining years, while raising our kids. And in hindsight, maybe the disruption to the kids lives was a mistake.. But its done now.. I just hope my daughter gets a break...😷
Find something relaxing to rejuvenate yourself. Like a hobby or a social group.
Something to get you out of yourself for a while.
For me, I have several hobbies. That way I don't get bored.
To get out of my main personality I switch gears to one of my feminine traits (and I have several).
That's an idea! Try accessing one of your male traits! Build something or something like that! Get out of your own self.

Relatable, I'm in the early stages with my Mom. Its tough seeing her go through this.
