I'm afraid I do not understand your post well enough to guess what to say, but. . .

Listening if you would care to try again.

Ok. so my job is taking care of an elderly woman. She has dementia ad alzheimers. I was an aide for my grandma a few years ago who also had this. And I am having a very hard time taking care of this woman due to the stress and cant communicate with her. So basically I'm all alone in my head at work, with nothing to do and memories of my grandma brought up. I was going to try to buy some craft supplies to make for her. but there are no coworkers aand it isn't a work environment that is condusive to me and my mental health. My aunt carol had the same issue when going back to being an aide. So I decided to stop being an aide. I put in my two weeks, Also... the thing I said I wouldn't do I have resolved. I just needed to talk to someone about it and I did.

    Does anyone here have a comfort item you carry with you when you go out? For example this is my doll, Annie, and I've recently been bringing her with me when I run errrands flor have an appointment. Holding her comforts me. I've bought her clothes, crocheted for her, I recently bought a personalized blanket with her name on it.  Just wondering if anyone else has a comfort item.
