Sad  Reacting to people relying on you
In my present (until Jan 31) apartment building I have a neighbour whose husband will be away for months. She has a lot of medical issues. She is becoming increasingly reliant on me and I am finding it to be increasingly stressful. She was at my door at 9 am after I put in a very bad night. The issues she presented were major and she is relying me to chauffeur her around. She has no money to pay for gas.

I feel trapped. I also find the noises she makes due to the pain to be unbearable. I am not being unsympathetic. I am jus overwhelmed. I don't know if there is a service that can be provided to help her. I don't think so. I move at the end of the month and her issues will not be resolved before then. I will be 10-15 minute drive away and cannot come running when she needs something. Hubby will not be back by then.

I feel guilty for feeling frustrated. When I had my surgery a few years back I had no support. I felt so isolated. so I understand. But I also feel cornered.
