Why Most Caregiver Advice Misses the Point

Search caregiver tips online and you’ll get flooded with pastel blog posts telling you to “take breaks,” “eat well,” and “ask for help.”

Let’s be honest that advice is usually written by people who’ve never had to clean up someone else’s bodily fluids at 2AM while crying quietly into a towel.

Real Caregiving Doesn’t Fit in a Wellness Blog

The kind of caregiving you do isn’t a Pinterest board. It’s gut-level grief in motion. It’s holding your tongue while being screamed at. It’s taking unpaid time off work and worrying about how you’ll pay rent and fill prescriptions.

Most advice ignores that you’re not just a caregiver, you’re still trying to survive.

Burnout Isn’t Just Exhaustion. It’s Disappearance

“Burnout” gets thrown around like it’s just being tired. But for caregivers, it means losing yourself. Forgetting what silence sounds like. Feeling like a ghost in your own life. And then feeling guilty for even thinking about yourself at all.

That kind of reality doesn’t get addressed in most articles because it makes people uncomfortable.

You Don’t Need Clichés. You Need Backup
