• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I am new to the forum.
I am a 55 woman and discovered I am ADD and OCD. I known for years I been brain Damage at birth. I concerned myself Mentally Challenged. People do not understand I can't do certain things.
I know God gives you strength but also doesn't God do not give you more than you can bear?

I can't deal with my verbally abusive Dad and my sister says I can. Dad is getting Dementia and I feel he needs to be in a home. My sister will not put him in a home because she afraid we lose our inheritance.

My husband gives me 3-4 things to do while he is at work, which is fine with me. Doesn't God understand my limitations? That I am not like most people?

Sorry, your dad is verbally abusive. I think I'd work at walking away when he is that way.

I don't think I understand you saying your fine with 3 or 4 things to do and your limitations.

OH, and what is the deal with your father still working and having dementia?
