Mum with schizoeffective is lonely
My mum has schizoeffective and has been up and down for the last 2 years. Prior to that she had a job and was well for about 10 years. Im 26, work full time and spend my mornings before work, my lunch break and then after work with mum just to keep her well and talk her out of feeling paranoid or depressed. We've been playing around with her meds with the psychiatrist but just can't seem to get them right. She has good days and bad. She loves being surrounded by people and gets very lonely, so basically I am trying to find her some hobbies / something to do although she's very picky with what I offer. I've tried ermha and each but to no avail. I find them confusing or they have too long waiting lists etc. I'm at my whitts end ! I can't do much more for her while I work full time. Hoping someone has some suggestions on support groups or ideas for things she can do or things that have worked for others! Thank you 🙂
