[quote=Anonymous]Most caregivers hate caregiving most of the time. Its a really tough job and it doesn't matter if you are doing it as a responsibility or to make a living. As long as you can do your basic duties and aren't cruel, its fine. However, do try to find kindness inside you and think of yourself in shoes of the person who is dependent on you. Always know that you are doing noble work and your child self or your elderly self is looking at you with admiration. There is nothing more heroic than caring for another human, other than doing it when you don't feel like it. Also, you need to let go of perfection and make time for yourself and also for sometimes just holding hand of the person you are caring for, they need your compassion the most. Never worry about judgement of others on how well you are doing it, if they were compassionate enough they will offer help not judgement. [/quote]
