Stress the value of being open with others and asking for assistance when necessary. Encourage contacting professionals, support groups, or local resources.
“Effective communication becomes essential during trying times. In difficult circumstances, asking for assistance can be a lifesaver and is a display of strength rather than weakness.”
Insist on the importance of self-care and self-compassion. Remind caregivers that in order to stay resilient, they must put their own needs first.
“Caregivers who are self-compassionate are able to recognize their shortcomings and efforts. Making self-care a priority guarantees that they will have the stamina to keep helping others.”
