" There are multiple things caregivers can do for themselves. 1. Get enough sleep. 2. Do not go at it alone. Find someone who will be able to support you emotionally. 3. Destress. Look for what stresses you out, and look for ways to let go of things. 4. Pay attention to what you eat and drink. It is important to nourish your body, to eat regularly and stay hydrated. 5.
