Nothing works diatracrio occupation therapy, psych nurse, she sleeps all nite and I don't know if she's losing her mind, taking lorezapam, gabapentin, hydroxyzine, seroquel, cymbalta, benadryl...
I'm her daughter /caretaker I'm going crazy and resentful any advice out there?
This is not good for Mom feeling anxious all the time. Meds in older people don't work threw the system as fast. I agree, get her to a geriatic doctor.
For example, I know that gabapentin made my MIL totally crazy. My mom can handle it without issue. Point being, everyone is different.
Many times, when a doctor isn't sure what to do for his patient, he writes a prescription. Then another one. And another. Then before you know it, the patient is worse off than before she started!!!
If your mother needs to be put into a psych ward for evaluation, then so be it. You need an answer here because neither one of you can live like this much longer, right?
Wishing you the best of luck.
