Caregivers: Are You Taking Meds To Cope With Being A Caregiver? If So, What Are You Taking And Is It Helping?
This caregiver has been told that I should consider taking meds to deal with having two loved ones on a progression. The situation is stressful, but the whole idea is upsetting: that I should medicate myself because I'm forced to cope with two who have cognitive impairments.
