It’s also important that you be mindful of your own health and well-being — the better you feel, the better you can take care of your spouse, family member, or friend.

Remember to take care of yourself, too
At times, you may feel overwhelmed or anxious about your role as a caregiver. That’s normal. And that’s why remembering to take time for yourself is an important part of being a caregiver. The better you take care of yourself, the better you can care for your loved one.
Here are some tips to help you take care of yourself:
-
Stay active. Whether it’s taking a short walk or going for a long run or bike ride, regular physical activity will help keep you feeling good
-
Take time for yourself. Do something that brings you joy. It could be cooking your favorite meal or listening to a song you love. A little goes a long way
-
Connect with friends. Meet up with a friend or call, text, and email to stay in touch with the important people in your life
-
Stay mindful of your own health. Visit your doctor when you need to and set realistic limits on what you can do as a caregiver
- Ask for help when you need it
- Reach out to family and friends for support
- Join a local support group or an online community for those who’ve been touched by cancer. Based on your needs, you may also find additional assistance through the American Cancer Society Resource Search
- See a counselor or mental health professional
