Families & Mental Illness
What about me?
Carers can suffer exhaustion, burnout, even depression if proper care is not taken for their own physical and mental wellbeing. Always being on alert and on the lookout for the next crisis can take its toll. In this 'Speaking From Experience' video clip, carers share the strategies and techniques they have used to relieve the stresses of caring for their loved one; whilst encouraging other carers to find an enjoyable and rejuvenating outlet.
