Anxiety, depression and tremors

My wife’s diagnosis wasn’t really a surprise since we pretty much knew, but as things progressed it was clear that our lives had taken a much different path than either of us wanted or expected. As hard as things can be for me though, I try to remember that they’re a 1000 times worse for her. Like yours it seems, she has anxiety (due to deep seated fear/terror), depression (since realistically there is no hope), and tremors and other physical aspects like REM sleep disorder.

Since you have a neurologist (or some physician who’s prescribed Kisunla), can they refer you to resources you may need as a relatively new caregiver? A social worker and occupational therapist would seem like a good start. Other resources may be available, and I’ve found some are on a sliding scale according to ability to pay. Also neighbors or folks in a congregation or community who can come by, help with cooking, etc?

You’ve made a fantastic step by posting on this forum, too. There are spouses and some men who can lend our ears and experience - many with a lot more experience than me. I’m glad to meet you, and sorry you need to be here.
