Your must learn to reach out to others for help, for strategies that you can use to restructure how you are providing care.   You must surround yourself with positive feedback, learn to move beyond always complaining. Then you must reconnect with your dreams and make positive changes.  You can renew your hope, you can still take part in aspects of your dreams!
