231. What Is The Burden Of Dementia Caregiving Really? Decision Fatigue

Do you ever feel like your brain is just done? 
The endless choices in caregiving—what to cook, how to respond, when to step in—can leave you mentally drained. This exhaustion is called decision fatigue, and it’s one of the biggest burdens of dementia caregiving.

We explore why decision fatigue happens, how it affects caregivers, and the biblical and practical solutions to reduce it.

God has provided wisdom, rest, and community to support you—you don’t have to do it all alone.

Decision fatigue is real, but it doesn’t have to define your caregiving journey. By creating routines, limiting choices, seeking support, and trusting God’s plan, you can lighten the mental load and find peace in caregiving.
