A Tip From Teepa,
Take Care of Yourself When it's not working—when something you tried to do didn't work, when you're getting frustrated or angry—you absolutely need to learn to take a time out. It's critical to step out of the situation. Take at least three deep breaths—breathe in and out, deeply!
When you are frustrated, angry, or in despair, the person you are caring for picks up on—and re-acts to—your stress level and intensity. They may not understand what or why you are feeling as you do, but they will be impacted by your tone of voice, body language and emotional state. When you're angry, you're no good to them or to yourself.
Breathing deeply will help you get back to neutral, lower your emotional level, and help you regain perspective about the situation you are trying to problem solve. Also, don't hesitate to ask for
help. Putting support systems in place for surprising times when living with dementia is critical. Dementia is hard work!
