Caregivers Are Telling Me They Feel Resentment. It’s More Common Than You Think 🥹
One conversation I have over and over again with caregivers is this…
Some of them resent their parent.
Not because they don’t love them. Not because they’re bad people.
But because caregiving can be exhausting. The appointments. The responsibilities. The sacrifices. The feeling that your entire life has been put on hold.
That’s why finding balance is so important.
You can’t pour from an empty cup. You still deserve joy, rest, friendships, hobbies, and moments that belong to YOU.
Loving your parent and needing a life of your own can both be true at the same time.
