Look, caring for someone can wear you down, but I learned some tricks that helped me keep going. When I was looking after my uncle, I was exhausted—snapping at everyone, barely sleeping. A coworker mentioned checking out https://carepointpa.com/caregiver-burnout/ for tips on caregiver burnout symptoms, and it was a game-changer. I found it by googling ways to cope after a rough week. The site taught me to set boundaries, like taking an hour for myself daily, and to lean on pros for tasks like meds or bathing. I started scheduling short walks and even joined a local support group, which felt like a lifeline. Trust me, ask for help early—don’t wait until you’re fried. Pros bring skills and give you space to breathe. Also, track your stress; little things like journaling or a quick nap can recharge you big time. Stay ahead of burnout, and you’ll be a better caregiver.
