From people who came through it
โYou will resent them. You will hate yourself for it. Both things can be true. I wish someone had told me that earlier. Get a sitter for two hours a week, even if they refuse. Even if it feels like a waste. She'll survive. You need those two hours more than you know. And the guilt doesn't go away, but it gets quieter.โ
Rambling Window ยท been through caregiver burnoutโI 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.โ
summergold75 ยท been through caregiver burnoutโI know you are running on empty. The resentment, the guilt, the exhaustion, it is all real. You are not a bad person for feeling it. Start with one small thing that is just for you, even if it is ten minutes. I found a sitter for two hours a week, and it changed things. It is not a cure, but it is a start. You are doing more than you think.โ
Wandering Starling ยท been through caregiver burnoutโHi, you. This time last year I was exactly where you are. No respite in sight, every single day. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.โ
