Hello all! Welcome to Caregivers, Stress, and Stress Relief! I am a graduate student at Texas Woman's University (TWU) working on a Master's degree in Health Studies. During this semester (Fall, 2014) we will examine issues related to caring for mentally and physically disabled children, mentally ill adults, and seniors with Alzheimer's disease, among others. I will look at the different types of stress that can affect caregivers, and examine ways to reduce and relieve this stress. Take a few short minutes every week to check back and see what's new!
