I’ve seen my friends who are caregivers start to resent their loved one. What can I do to prevent this from happening to me?

First, it’s great that you’re acknowledging that this is a possibility. One of the biggest steps you can take to avoid this resentment is to find an outlet where you can talk about your feelings. Whether it’s a therapist or a support group, there are a variety of different methods that you can use to get caregiver support. It’s also a good idea to talk to your loved one if they are still able to communicate. This will help you to air out any grievances that you may have. Communication is key when caring for your senior, so make sure you’re always talking things out.
