When Helping HURTS: Signs You’re BURNING OUT as a Caregiver

Caregiver burnout and compassion fatigue are incredibly common experiences for people who consistently put others first. Whether you’re a parent, health professional, teacher, therapist, or someone looking after aging parents, constantly caring for others without adequate self-care can leave you feeling emotionally drained and detached. This can manifest as irritability, exhaustion, and even resentment toward the people you once felt devoted to helping. That slow depletion of emotional energy is what we call compassion fatigue. In this video, we break down how caregiving—while meaningful and important—can take a serious toll if you don’t include yourself in the equation. We explore the common signs of burnout, the emotional cost of being the go-to support person, and the psychology behind why caring too much without boundaries can become harmful. You’ll also learn actionable strategies for preventing burnout, including how to set healthy boundaries, implement sustainable self-care routines, and shift from guilt-driven giving to more balanced caregiving. Using examples and psychological insights, we emphasize that putting yourself first is not selfish—it’s necessary. Self-neglect in the name of caring for others ultimately harms both you and the people you care about. Learning to manage caregiver stress, regulate emotional energy, and recharge can help you stay present and connected without burning out. If you’ve been feeling worn out, undervalued, or overwhelmed by the needs of others, this discussion on compassion fatigue and caregiver burnout will give you both clarity and tools to protect your well-being while still supporting the people who matter most. #Burnout #CaregiverBurnout #PreventingBurnout Watch all of my videos for free at: http://www.psychologyvideos.ca For more information about Dr. Rami Nader, visit: https://tinyurl.com/y3eu5dfw DISCLAIMER: The videos provided here on this YouTube Channel are for informational use only.
