[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She has dementia. don't take the guiit trips personally. Easier said than done.[/quote] This is the answer OP, work on how you receive negative remarks. Every time your mom is critical remind yourself that it’s the dementia, and thank yourself. Think about who else you might be able to reach out to for support or a break. [/quote] These guilting was always there but it was more subtle. So I’ve been guilted for 40 years.[/quote] Eldest Daughter Syndrome?[/quote] So true. This was my case-helping mom move near me, arranging all medical needs, etc. while younger sister “visited” occasionally and second-guessed every decision I made. At least mom didn’t have dementia.
