After burning out and a slight mental breakdown after caring for my mother for the past year and a half, she finally opted to consider moving into a senior care facility. Why do I feel so guilty?

Caregiving is not easy for most people, so there’s no reason to be hard on yourself. Caregivers tend to feel guilt when they can no longer take care of their senior. If you can't shake your guilty feeling, consider joining a caregiver support group. Understand that you are not abandoning your mother, but rather, making sure that she can get the best care that she can get.
