Life can get overwhelming at times, especially when you have others to consider as well as your own needs. During Stress Awareness Month, we’d like to share some ways to cope with stress as a carer ‘Dealing with depression and stress Carers UK’. Dealing with depression and stress | Carers UK

The GP writes to Social Services and they ignore his letter.
I asked for a Carers Check up, and was told “we don’t have time for them any more”!
I’ve asked for a Carers Assessment from M’s surgery, in writing, no response.
They made an appointment for M’s annual review with M’s care staff.
They didn’t take him.
I know I’m stressed. Apparently when you are stressed your cortisol levels rise. On the internet I read in various places how raised cortisol affects the body. I think I meet at least 90% of them!
@Paola_Carers_UK , I’ll give it a look. Could do with some help with depression and stress.
