Your loved one needs your help, and you are doing the very best you can. Some days, helping them feels great. When you think of how much they mean to you, how much they have given, or how vulnerable they are, you throw yourself into caregiving.

But at other times, caring for your loved one can be overwhelming and burdensome. So much of your own life is put on hold. So much of your energy and resources are spent. And your heart can be utterly broken by the pain and suffering you witness. If you withdraw or turn away, guilt rises; you wonder how you could react this way. But these mixed feelings are normal for humans. Caring for another person is never easy. At times, it is terribly difficult and painful, almost unbearable. Being a caregiver can make you sick in body, mind, and spirit. And this is why the author wrote “The Caregiver’s Guide to Self-Care: Help for Your Caregiving Journey.”
