Caregiving for someone with advancing Parkinson's is genuinely hard work, and reaching out for support is one of the best things you can do — for both of you.
Here are some great ways to find a caregiver support group:
- MyParkinsonsTeam – You're already part of this online community, where caregivers and people living with Parkinson's share experiences and support each other daily
- The Parkinson's Foundation – Offers a list of caregiver resources and may have local or online support groups
- The American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) – Has compiled useful resources specifically for caregivers
- Your hospital or medical practice – Many offer on-site support groups, patient liaisons, or referrals to caregiver services
- A social worker – Can help connect you with local or part-time caregiving support options As one MyParkinsonsTeam member put it, "I see a therapist, which helps, but it's not the same as talking to another caregiver." Connecting with people who truly understand what you're going through can make a real difference.
You don't have to navigate this alone. 💙
