I need to find support groups. I need to find some in home help. Any suggestions?

My Mother has Dementia I have been taking care of her for a very long time. I am starting to feel lost and like I can't do this anymore. I have nobody to talk to no one really knows how bad it is. On top of that my sister will not help me with our Mother and I am feeling very drained. I can't work, I can't leave my house because My Mother can't be here by herself

It’s time to hire help if mom has private funds or file for Medicaid if she doesn’t.
If you list your state you might get more specific advise. Not all states offer the same services.
Get an evaluation of mom’s condition so you know what to look for as to when she might qualify. This website will give you a list of states. Find yours and go from there.
Keep looking for help. It’s for her benefit as well as yours.
See your doctor ASAP in case you need an antiAnxiety or antidepressant to get yourself in better shape to handle this problem. Make sure mom has all the meds that might help her as well.
