Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

When you are a caregiver, love can turn into an endless to-do list. You do more, think more, worry more - and then feel guilty for wanting space. Caregiving Without Losing Yourself is a practical guide for people who are supporting a partner, parent, child, or friend and feel stretched thin by responsibility, emotion, and constant urgency. Kaia Solander offers clear tools for caregiver boundaries that protect relationships rather than rupture them, and grounded ways to work with caregiving guilt so it stops running your decisions. You will learn how to map the real care load (including the invisible tasks), make specific requests that lead to real help, and build a support network planning approach that does not leave you managing everyone. The book shows how to shift from crisis-driven days to caregiver routine planning that stabilises mornings, appointments, medication, communication, and rest. This is also a book about what happens inside you. It helps you recognise burnout signals early, choose recovery practices you can actually keep, and address resentment in caregiving before it hardens into conflict or numbness. If you are trying to prevent caregiver burnout, share tasks more fairly, and create sustainable caregiving that does not erase your health, work, or identity, this book gives you a framework you can return to again and again - especially on the days when you have nothing left to improvise.
