I am a primary caregiver for my Dad. Does anyone have tips/coping mechanisms for me as a caregiver?

Anxiety, depression, fear, frustration

Call your department of aging. I know mine lessened once I got Mom on Meals on Wheels. A lot less cooking and worrying.

Give yourself a break sometimes. See if your fathers insurance covers the cost of a caregiver and if so is it once or twice a week and how many hours.

You need a daily break to do something you enjoy. It’s not a luxury. It’s a need. Whether it’s taking a walk, doing yoga, riding your bike.... You have to find someone to give you a break every day.
