Recognizing the Signs of Caregiver Burnout

Providing care on a continuous basis for a loved one can be physically and emotionally draining. Without adequate rest and time to recharge, family caregivers often feel “burned out.” Caregiver burnout is a state of emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion, often accompanied by a change in attitude. Along with having a negative impact on the caregiver, it can also affect the people they are caring for. Caregivers that were once positive and engaged can become negative and disconnected.  

Common signs of caregiver burnout are similar to the symptoms of depression and stress and can include:

• Physical and emotional exhaustion

• Changes in weight and appetite

• Feeling resentful and short tempered

• Feeling helpless and hopeless

• Anxiety and irritability

• Headaches and backaches

• Excessive use of alcohol or medications

• Withdrawing from friends and family

• Thoughts of hurting yourself or your loved one
