Boundaries can be the difference between just surviving or a healthy lifestyle. Everyone needs boundaries in work and in personal life. Sometimes, it is difficult to set boundaries when we feel a sense of obligation or when we don’t want to let people down. Setting boundaries does not necessarily mean pushing back. It is something that should be done to help things run more smoothly. It is important to remember that there are two people in a caregiving relationship, both of whom need care.
Having a network that understands and shares similar challenges can help to navigate low moments. It provides a safe space to discuss, air frustrations, and gain advice. This support system can help find workarounds for a better life balance. No one can do this alone. Look to organizations like Dark Guardian where relationships can be developed and where support and resources are available.
