I only did a little more than 2 years before my father ended up in the nursing home anyway (D3 Gold). My folks had tried assisted living for a year before that and it basically bankruptedbthem financially and helped slide both of them into dementia. My stepmother ended up at the nursing home first and my father followed two years later.
Everything written so far is true but I will try to give a perspective that only cam from time and distance away from the problems.
When one is losing one's mind, it is a process that is going insane. Emotional health is impossible at the time and mood swings, mean streaks, vindictiveness, and just plain anger are rally very common. Questioning the one lifeline in all this is normal. How can you-their child possibly have a normal life when their own is going crazy. Despite providing them with good nutrition, endless entertainment options, social outings, clean clothes, clean bedding, and a clean home---you can't give them back the one thing they really want the most (Diablo iii Gold).
What they want is to not need you. What they want is their youth. What they want is a healthy body and a healthy mind and they are not getting any of these things. Their emotional maturity is regressive and eventually they might remind you of the temper tantrums of two year olds rather than the obnoxious teen agers.
If you go and get a job outside their care giver role, they will hate you for it just like that two year in day care who has temper tantrums every day. The difference is that because they are adults, there is some level of understanding that they are the ones with unacceptable behavior.
What to do- get help- lots of it. Consult the medical community. Arrange to meet with other caregivers. Hire respite care. And firmly lay forth the ground rules about respect just like you would with a two year old. Learn from this experience and consider well how you want to die.
