I love Hahn and Wever, but Clare's extremely chaotic behavior is difficult to watch and appreciate. Also, if she's separated from her family, why not stay in an inexpensive weekly rental kind of place?  It makes no sense that she's wandering the streets at night or illegally bunking with an Alzheimers patient.

If we are meant to understand Clare is in emotional pain, I struggle to see it because she's so annoying.

I agree. She's hard to watch. I see her make poor choice after poor choice. And based on her personality, it's hard to believe she was ever mature and somewhat responsible. 

I suppose the show will reveal what happened between the time she and David (?) got together and where she is now, but I'm not sure I want to stick with the show long enough to find out.

I agree with this. I understand she lost her mother at a young age, but Clare is 49 and should have figured some stuff out by now. She does not think at all before making decisions. Sleeping in the alzheimer patient's room was so dumb.
