From people who came through it

  • “I'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't so but you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong. Honestly, getting out for ten minutes a day helped more than I thought it would.”

    Arjun N. · been through caregiver burnout
  • “If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy and the first few months were the worst of my life and but I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad, lean on whoever offers, even if it's awkward so people want to help. Go slowly.”

    Johanna N · been through caregiver burnout
  • “I was in the same place this time last year. I remember my own health falling apart like it was yesterday. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.”

  • “Se você está começando agora, saiba que é normal se sentir sobrecarregado. Não tente fazer tudo sozinho. Peça ajuda, mesmo que seja pequena. Um vizinho, um parente, um grupo de apoio. E cuide de você também. Não é egoísmo, é necessidade. As coisas podem melhorar, mas você precisa dar o primeiro passo para buscar ajuda.”
