South Asian Health — Women's Health2 October 2026
Being a caregiver can be rewarding but also challenging, affecting your mental health. It's important to prioritize self-care and seek support from family and friends. Make sure you take regular breaks to recharge and engage in activities that bring you joy. The NHS offers resources for mental health support, such as talking therapies and counseling services. Don’t hesitate to reach out to your GP if you feel overwhelmed or stressed. Remember, taking care of your own mental health is essential for providing the best care to others.
