Managing emotions after long day
Post Body

Hi, I’m not sure if this is a right place to ask, but if you know better group-please let me know. My question is about how do you manage your emotions after long hard day of caregiving? I recently started to work at caregiving home (in Europe) and I love the job. I find it very purposeful and meaningful. Friday was my second day at work and it was emotionally difficult- my floor has 25 ppl who almost all are with severe dementia. They all are very sweet, I was told I did exceptionally well and so everything was great. Saturday morning I woke up 3:30 am and couldn’t fall back asleep (not normal for me) and this morning I woke up to severely painful shoulder (muscle cramp). I have not done anything physical that could have caused this, so I know it’s obviously do to emotional distress. What do you do to de-stress, I need ideas.
