Finding yourself in the role of a caretaker is a confusing and challenging process
Being the caretaker of an individual who experiences the world differently can be a heavy burden.
When it comes to special-needs caregiving, many things complicate that responsibility, including:
The timing of entering the role
How well you knew the individual before having the responsibility for their well-being
Your level of understanding around lived experience of the person you are now caring for
Having a safe space where you can explore your feelings, find additional resources, and feel supported is critical to the well-being of yourself and those in your care.
