Caregiver stress

Caregiver stress is a type of stress that someone gets from taking care of someone else. It can come from taking care of a family member, a friend, or a pet. It can also come from taking care of a person or animal who is really sick or needs a lot of help. This kind of stress can make someone feel really tired, sad, and worried. It may also make them have trouble sleeping, eating, or doing other things they need to do. Taking time for yourself and doing things that make you feel happy and relaxed can help with caregiver stress.
