Caring for the Caregiver: Mental Health Tips for a Balanced Life
Caring for a loved one is a very selfless act. It is an act that can be very rewarding. Yet, it can be very challenging to take on. When you become a caregiver to a loved one, you often become the backbone of support. You give physical, emotional, and in some cases financial support to the person you are taking care of. Although you may be happy to do it because of what the person means to you, it still takes a hard toll on you. This selfless act often comes with great personal sacrifice from you. Often one of those sacrifices can be your mental health.
