@juliagapowell @creativitycare #AlzChat Asking for help requires effort for everyone. In her book REINFORCEMENTS: How to Get People to Help you, Heidi Grant says that asking for help opens the possibility that that you will experience 5 kinds of social pain at the same time.
Total Legacy Care @TotalLegacyCare
@creativitycare @IRememberBetter It is so important to remember that not only are care partners often reluctant to ask for help but knowing where to find help can also be a major hurdle! Helping with signposting and guidance or a point in the right direction can often be invaluable 😊 #AlzChat #Dementia

@juliagapowell @creativitycare #AlzChat When you get past the pain of asking, great things await!

@creativitycare Yes. And there’s also the #caregiver where the care might not be mutually supported. Both #carepartner, #caregiver are in service to care/support however, roles are differentiated. #Alzchat

@juliagapowell @creativitycare #AlzChat Think I heard an interview w/ the author Heidi Grant last summer. I had long believed that one big thing that stood between my Dad (Mom's care partner) & me was that it took years before he'd ask me for help. I really wanted to understand why.

@creativitycare @ThatVDOVault This topic is bringing back the early days when I was caring for my mother completely without any support. I had to take a long break as I was on the verge of a breakdown, or probably in it. I was in a dark place. Support is so vitally necessary. Two lives depend on it. #Alzchat
Barbara Ivey @alzbarbie
@journeyofcareM @creativitycare @ThatVDOVault #Alzchat Absolutely right. Getting to the place where the care partner is ready to ask takes everyone a while. What got you to that point?

@creativitycare @IRememberBetter #AlzChat I was so inspired to learn that people are roughly twice as likely to help as we think they are. It's something EVERY carer needs to know. (I'd bet the odds are even better when asking to improve life for a PLWD.)

@creativitycare Getting support can be difficult here in rural Canada. Internet access can be unavailable, or so slow & also some ppl just aren't techno savvy. Cutbacks on social services has happened here, like everywhere & I worry there are carers needed help, but not getting it. #Alzchat

@juliagapowell @creativitycare @IRememberBetter #alzchat Everyone needs sleep to cope & make good decisions. In my opinion, since you are making decisions for 2, your sleep MUST take priority.

@juliagapowell @alzbarbie You and your mum must be exhausted. I think I've mentioned before, but I used to have anxiety/sleep issues. Several months ago a nurse practitioner suggested trying Mirtazapine (I take 15 mg at night) & it has worked wonders for both ailments. Maybe the GP can help.#Alzchat
