Caring for Caregivers

Caregiving for loved ones with chronic/progressive illness can be overwhelming and thankless. Without adequate support, caregivers frequently develop "burnout". Symptoms of Caregiver Burnout can include (but are not limited to): difficulty identifying, communicating, and prioritizing your own needs, boundaries, and complex spectrum of emotions. These symptoms are amplified by feeling like you are the only one with these struggles, like everyone else is coping better than you. This group exists to show you that you aren't alone, that others understand your struggle, and that you don't have to carry this burden by yourself anymore.
