When family caregiving strains the caregivers' relationship

My adult daughter and I have been taking care of my mother together for two years and we're both exhausted but we handle stress completely differently and lately we're snapping at each other more than we're supporting each other. The caregiving is hard but watching us fall apart might be harder.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Shared burdens can divide rather than unite when people don't acknowledge their different ways of coping.
