Clinical depression among caregivers is quite common.  Caregivers may also face chronic stress, sleep deprivation, and feelings of isolation, frustration, anger or guilt. The following tips may be helpful to maintain  mental health:

1.  Take charge of your life. 

2.  Be good to yourself.

3.  Watch for signs of depression.

4.  Accept help.

5.  Learn about your loved one's condition.

6.  Connect with others.

7.  Embrace new solutions.
