Caregiver Burnout Self-Check

A gentle, private reflection on how you're really doing — because you matter too.

A gentle check-in

Over the past few weeks, how often has each been true? There are no wrong answers — this is just for you.

Your reflection

Answer the questions, then see a gentle reflection — and some support options.

Caregiving is demanding, and it's easy to lose track of your own wellbeing. This short, private self-check invites you to notice how you've been feeling lately, and points you toward support if you need it.

This is a reflection tool, not a diagnosis. It runs entirely in your browser and saves nothing.

Common questions

What are the signs of caregiver burnout?

Common signs include ongoing exhaustion, trouble sleeping, irritability, anxiety or sadness, guilt, losing interest in things you enjoy, and neglecting your own health. This self-check helps you notice them; it isn't a diagnosis.

How do I cope with caregiver burnout?

Build in regular breaks and respite, share tasks with others, protect your own sleep and health, and reach out to a support group or counselor. Our burnout guide covers practical steps, and the Eldercare Locator can connect you to local help.

This is a private self-reflection tool, not a diagnostic test or medical assessment. If you're struggling, please reach out to a doctor, counselor, or a trusted person. In a crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline).
