Dr. @SonyaBN of @VA_PTSD_Info shares: When we're stressed, we can cope positively through exercise or connecting. We can cope in ways that hurt us like doing high-risk things like drinking more. Check in on how you & your loved ones are coping & steer towards healthier options.
"When you're a caregiver, it's so easy to forget about yourself. Check-in with yourself. Ask: 'what is it that I'm going through?'
Make sure you're eating, sleeping, staying hydrated. Take a break when possible." - Dr. @SonyaBN of @VA_PTSD_Info

During months of isolation in #COVID19, my mentally sharp 85 yo mom, living alone, descended into #dementia that shocked me. As a physician who studies #LongCOVID, I was wholly unprepared for the enduring effects social isolation would have on some who never even got #COVID.
