When You’re Caring for Someone with Dementia, Who’s Caring for you?

If you’ve ever felt like no one understands what you’re going through as a caregiver, this blog was written just for you. Because when you love someone with dementia, your world changes. Your schedule. Your emotions. Your identity. And while you’re busy holding it all together, it’s easy to lose yourself in the process.
That’s why we created the Empowered Caregiving Series at Cerenity Marian of Saint Paul. This is a place where caregivers like you can breathe, connect and build real tools to carry into each day.
What You’ll Gain from the Dementia Caregiver Support Group:
- A deeper understanding of your evolving role as a caregiver
- Strategies to manage caregiver stress and avoid burnout
- Guidance on how to build a support network that actually supports you
- A quiet space to listen or speak without judgment
- A chance to meet others who simply get it

Why It Matters Now
Most caregivers wait until they’re exhausted before seeking help. Let others wait. Let them try to do it all alone. But not you. You’re taking the first step toward clarity, strength, and renewed purpose.
And if someone else in your life is carrying this same weight—bring them with you. One small invitation could lift a huge burden.
You’re not alone, and you never have to be.
