K, I have followed your posts over several years. You have shown that you are a bright woman, thoroughly engaged in helping your husband. Don’t sweat a minor memory loss. We all have that problem as we age.

Yes, I felt I did not have a moment to myself during the day, and when he fell asleep I was too tired to do much. One thing that helps is to read a book when you're able to take a break, during this nap time for instance. I had an aide here twice a week for four hours and I was able to go out to appointments for myself, and to do food buying but not relaxing much, except, as I said for sitting down to read the news, or a book when I could. a Bath is also a good, relaxing thing to do if you can leave him alone while he sleeps! Music is also good. I watch music videos when I can. You can choose exactly what you want to listen to and music is always good for your health. Going outside for a few minutes also helps!
Do what you feel like for a few minutes! It's important to your sense of well being!

I think we spend so much time concerned for another person that it’s natural to forget things I have had the same thing happened and I try to make sure the next day I do my best to have some “me” time. It normally helps.

It sounds like the cumulative effects of stress but if you’re concerned get yourself checked out as well. It may help to decrease your anxiety. Take care.

I agree with everyone, I think the same thing at times. We have so many things to think about as a caregiver as well as taking care of our homes and what ever else comes up. It just gets overwhelming at times. Our brains go on overload until we stop and recharge. You are doing a great job. Hang on and stay strong
