To sum it up, my grandparents live in a small house. My grandfather is 80 years old; although he is lucid, he is worn out. My grandmother’s Alzheimer’s is progressing rapidly: she defecates around the house, vomits, spits on the floor, moves furniture, tears up paper, and refuses to bathe or wear adult diapers. I am a 29-year-old woman; I’m currently unemployed, so my family has assigned me the task of caring for both of them. This involves cleaning the house every day, cooking meals, cleaning my grandmother up, and keeping her company. She is becoming increasingly aggressive—cursing and yelling at me—and I try to ignore it. She has tried to hit me several times and has thrown heavy objects at me. My grandfather refuses to put her in a care home because he insists that I am enough. But after all this time, I can’t take it anymore; I’m at my breaking point. I’m in the bathroom right now, crying from exhaustion while she screams non-stop. It’s already night, and I haven’t even been able to shower or eat lunch. I get paid 300 reais (59 dollars) a month to do all of this. My aunts and uncles are useless and don’t help at all. I’m exhausted and don’t know what to do.

Sério, não sei como tem gente que gosta da Jane Austen. Eu tentei ler 4 livros dela, mas "Emma" em especial me deu até raiva. Será possível que os livros dela sejam só tomar chá na casa dos outros e fofoca...? Talvez a Charlotte Bronte esteja certa ao falar que emoções intensas a Austen desconheça. Desculpe para quem gosta.

Enfim, levei meus livros ao sebo e troquei por Agatha Christie, Thomas Mann e uma edição da Divina Comédia. Dinheiro disperdiçado jamais.

I am addicted to benzos (sleeping pills) and it is ruining my life; please, I need prayers for the strength to get through the coming days. I will be facing withdrawal, and it will be painful. Please pray that the Lord Jesus stands by my side throughout this entire process. Pray for my health! Thank you.

For a very specific reason, I won't be able to get alprazolam (Xanax), so I’ll have to stop taking it. I only have four pills left, so I thought it would be best to go through the night without taking one and save them for an emergency. That was a terrible idea. Around 3 a.m., I experienced sound hypersensitivity, chest pain, a headache, and mental confusion, on top of insomnia. I had to take a pill. I feel terrible about "failing," but the best thing to do is see a doctor and explain what I went through tonight.

Tipo, eu AMO balé, amo mesmo, de coração. Quero ver dia 17, mas o balé acaba tarde no Theatro, voltar de metrô pra Baixada me daria muito medo. E o pior, a corrida de Uber é 100 reais uma estimativa para minha cidade, um arrombo. Acho que não vale a pena. Tô triste demais.

Hello! I was diagnosticated, after 4 long years with a psychiatrist with Borderline (previosly, another psychiatrist gave me bipolar disorder, depressive level, but none of bipolar drugs helped me). So, that's mean I'm a neurodivergent?

I don't know if I also have ADHD, but I'm very inattentive and slow, I have hyperfocus periods in which I learn absolutely everything about a subject, I'm very curious. My parents always says I'm a little dumb. But I gesso now my emotions is more than my mind.
