Dealing With Caregiver Stress

caregiver stressThe responsibility of caring for an aging parent in Santa Clarita can add a certain amount of stress to an already demanding routine. Children of senior adults often take on the obligation of helping daily or weekly with a parent who might live alone, or they may even care for their parent in the family home, all the while fulfilling their duties as parents themselves. Most of the time these adult children can manage their multiple obligations, working a full-time job, caring for their own household and children, and providing senior home care for their elderly parent as necessary. Sometimes, however, they experience a sudden sense of the immense responsibility that is on their shoulders. If this is you, then you might be experiencing caregiver stress.

Caregiver Stress is not a medical condition, but it can make you feel like your world is crumbling down around you. Some common symptoms include:

  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Anxiety
  • Irritability
  • Sadness
  • Fatigue
  • Feelings of not being able to cope
  • Scattered/forgetful

When you find yourself feeling stressed on a daily basis and it is impacting how you interact with your children and spouse, it’s time to realize that you might need some additional help in caring for your older parent.
