Self Care for Providers and Caregivers
We recognize that caring for others can be challenging and stressful. We also know it can be difficult to ask for help when you are always the helper.
Mental Health Minnesota believes that mental health is important for everyone.
Much like when you fly on an airplane and the flight attendant instructs you to “put your oxygen mask on first before helping others”, it is necessary for you to take care of your own mental health so you can provide care to others.
