234. Caring for Everyone While Holding Yourself Together: Ask A Therapist

Описание: Welcome to the LDS Mental Health Podcast!

When you’re the one everyone depends on, it can feel like there’s no space left for you to fall apart. This episode is for the quiet kind of exhaustion that comes from loving people through hard things while trying to hold your own life together.

Niki answers listener questions about caring for a medically fragile child without losing your marriage, supporting a teen who speaks harshly about themselves, walking beside a spouse with depression, and coping with the heartbreak of an adult child creating distance.

Instead of quick fixes, this episode offers small ways to stay connected when life feels heavy. Gentle ways to respond when words hurt. Compassion that doesn’t require you to abandon your boundaries. And hope that even when relationships shift or strain, healing and direction are still possible.

If you’re tired, stretched thin, or quietly grieving something no one else fully sees, this episode will remind you that you are not alone, not broken, and not without support.
