Hi I am a carer for my adult son who has schizophrenia lately feeling depressed and a failure some days I am just so tired
Hi Kathy,
Welcome to the forum.
Caring IS exhausting. Lockdown has intensified this by keeping carers and carees together even more so along with the added stresses of living through a pandemic.
We can all only do our best to get through these difficult times and support our carees to do the same.
Don’t be so hard on yourself. Your needs are equally important, take a look here to support your own well-being https://www.carersuk.org/forum/support-and-advice/carers-health-issues/positive-ways-to-cope-with-low-mood-12505
