My father has been struggling with the mild onset of dementia at 86. To be full blown before 65 is staggering to me.
My father is insanely mean and nasty to me non stop. He gaslights you so you question if you said what you think you did or he did. I am now at the point I record all conversations.
To play back the nastiness and abusiveness is difficult to hear but I realize this is mostly the disease.
I didn't want to make this thread about me and my issues. I am looking at my situation right now and considering myself lucky he lasted so long where hearing about what you are dealing with.
