Many people between the ages of 35 and 54 care for both children and aging parents. This double load of caregiving responsibilities may cause them to neglect self-care, which can take a toll on their relationships and physical and mental health. In this episode, Stephanie Moulton Sarkis, PhD, a published author and licensed mental health counselor who has been in practice for over 20 years, discusses the ways in which being part of the sandwich generation is different for people with ADHD. She shares tips on how to identify stressors and create healthy habits to deal with them, avoid burnout, and create and uphold boundaries.
