    Being a caregiver and working in tech can be grueling on the body, mind, & spirit. Can you relate? Or is it just me.

    What actually works best for me is therapy, or working with a transformational coach who can help you solve many of your problems and become free. I know a good coaching retreat in Mallorca where Katja Verbeek can help you manage your stress and become more mindfulness

    Here's what has helped me: - Reading non-fiction/self help books. Currently reading Setting Boundaries by Dr. Rebecca Ray, have loved The Four Agreements and Atomic Habits. - Defining what self-care looks like, and prioritising making time for it regularly. For me it's reading a book, exercising, or writing, and having time to decompress after work. - Reaching out to friends, family, and mentors - this one can be a really difficult hurdle to overcome, but I often find when I am the most stressed, or feel isolated, it's a critical time for me to tell someone that I need support, even if I might not know what it should look like yet. - Professionally speaking, ADPList.org has a wealth of people that are willing to share their insights. - And in an ideal world, having the resources to access a therapist. There are some that allow sliding-scale payments, and I know for some using telehealth services like BetterHelp have been helpful.

    I prefer to take a course in psychotherapy. It is the doctor who helps me get rid of stress. I decided to go to doctors only after reading the article http://fherehab.com. Stress brings us more trouble than any other disease. There are many psychological methods to cope with stress and return to a normal life. A specialist will choose the right one based on the patient's condition and personal peculiarities. Do not assume that working with a psychologist or psychotherapist is the same as talking to friends. Specialists do not give advice or provide ready-made solutions, but they help you find the root of the problem and change your relationship with the situation.
