Is anyone her in a caring role? I care for my wife who has two autoimmune disorders, fibromyalgia and a recently diagnosed blood clot. Right now her knee has little cartilage left in it and she is virtually immobile as a result. Both of my children are teenagers on the autistic spectrum (both high functioning). My life has for decades been almost solely around caring for them all. The problem is that I am burnt out. My wife's knee problem means that I have to do virtually everything now. I only seem to leave the house to shop or taxi them around.
I haven't been able to maintain any special interest; and the truth is that my interest in life generally has diminished. Even if I made the time to leave the house, I struggle to connect with people.
I know that I have to try to get out more, but at fifty-two years of age and still finding being around people strenuous I really don't know what to do. I would appreciate any ideas, strategies and so on.
