I feel like I can’t do this anymore. I feel like I am losing my grip. This is becoming way too much. Is there any therapy you can recommend?

I am the caretaker for my dad who is 90.

I also wanted to suggest to check out Brené Browns podcast. Listen to the Marc Brackett interview where he discusses his work on Emotional Intelligence. You might find this helpful.

Hi Sping4

I am sorry you are dealing with this necessary isolation with your father. A year is a loooong time.
Sometimes that first year is the worst.
That’s under normal circumstances. These times are anything but.

I did a search on google
“englewood nj therapy” and the names of many therapist came up. They are offering an option for you to receive therapy over the phone these days. Try calling a few today to see if you can find a good fit.
Sometimes just taking that first step can make a huge difference.
I hope you feel better today. Big Hugs and make those calls.
