Caregiver Mental Health

Caregiver mental health refers to the emotional and psychological well-being of individuals providing care for others, such as family members or friends with health challenges. The demands of caregiving can lead to stress, fatigue, anxiety, and depression, as caregivers often prioritize others’ needs over their own. Maintaining good mental health is essential for caregivers to effectively support their loved ones while also caring for themselves. Strategies such as seeking support, setting boundaries, and practicing self-care can help manage stress and promote emotional resilience. Recognizing and addressing caregiver mental health is vital for sustaining both their well-being and the quality of care they provide.
