How can I avoid caregiver burnout?

Given the demands and stresses of caregiving, it should not be surprising that some caregivers may become patients themselves, at times succumbing to depression, burnout (sometimes called compassion fatigue) or self-neglect. To minimize the risk of this happening, caregivers need emotional support, recognition, encouragement, suggestions for coping techniques and information about their role as caregivers. Take a little time at each doctor visit for your loved one to talk about how you are faring in your caregiver role.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
