Coping with Compassion Fatigue

btn download orange

The original definition of Compassion Fatigue came from the healthcare industry — “the physical and mental exhaustion and emotional withdrawal experienced by those who care for sick or traumatized people over an extended period of time.” The definition more recently expanded to “apathy or indifference toward the suffering of others, as the result of overexposure to tragic news stories and images and the subsequent appeals for assistance.”

Not only do professional caregivers deal with this, but more of us recently are reporting this due to the overlapping challenges of pandemic fatigue, burnout, stress, and the variety of newsworthy events (COVID plus Ukraine plus School Shootings plus political insanity plus….). It gets to the point where many usually caring people start feeling indifferent — unable to take on the emotional burden of a patient’s agony, unable to watch the news one more minute, unable to donate or give on behalf of those suffering, and unable to be empathetic or concerned about family members, coworkers, or their own self-care.

Compassion Fatigue sneaks up on people and is often called “burnout,” but that is a separate issue entirely. Burnout comes from poorly managed stress, while Compassion Fatigue is more specific to our reactions to the overwhelming challenges on the outside.

 

16 tips on Coping with Compassion Fatigue:

1. Pay attention to changes in your mood.compassion_fatigue.jpg

2. Prioritize yourself.

3. Get enough sleep.

4. Eat a healthy diet.

5. Exercise often.

6. Drink plenty of water.

7. Set boundaries.

8. Take time for self-care and pamper yourself.

9. Take breaks from caregiving.

10. Find a caregiver support group.

11. Find a fun hobby.

12. Practice meditation.

13. Manage your thoughts.

14. Take time off work.

15. Ensure you have an identity outside work.

16. Have someone you can talk to.

 

And, if you don’t have someone safe to talk to, remember that you and your family members are eligible to see, at no cost to you, a professional counselor through your EAP.

Some Motivation for Motivation

What happens when your “Get up and Go” gets up and leaves? You lose track of your motivations, goals, and feel that you are starting to circle the drain. It’s time to find a way to regroup and start again… Again...

Success, they say, is about getting up one more time than you fall. Here are some tips to remind you of what you probably already know but may have forgotten during a stuck moment.

MOTIVATION

Motivation initiates, guides, maintains, and focuses what you do and how you do it. Motivation is like the jet fuel that pushes you to get to your goals, keeps you going, and continues to add fuel to your jets. Motivation reminds you that you can do a little bit more even when you are feeling like you cannot.

GOALS

Goals are all the things you want to accomplish in your day, week, month, year and even life. They are usually meaningful to you, if only to you. Goals can be small or huge, simple, or complex. Goals are the images that define your actions, the unique targets and hopes and ambitions that are special or interesting to you from day to day.

WHAT HAPPPENS IF YOU HAVE NO GOALS AND NO MOTIVATION

Without goals, there is no motivation, and without motivation, your goals can dissolve leaving you disappointed in yourself, bored, or feeling as if life has no meaning. Drifting along without goals is a less than fulfilling way to live a life, whereas a goal (even a small one) can energize and add color and texture to your days.

SOME FIRST STEPS TOWARD GOAL SETTING

  • Write down a goal.
  • Think about it and imagine it.
  • Do a little research if necessary.
  • Enjoy the image of your goal.
  • Imagine you reaching your goal.
  • Take one small (even infinitesimal) step toward it. (One of my writing mentors taught me, that if you don’t feel like you can write today, sharpen your pencils.)
  • Feel good about that beginning. (Remember in grade school when you got a “star”? It’s the same thing – it feels good!)

INCREASE MOTIVATION OVER TIME

  • Review your goal.
  • Set new little bits to it that are sustainable.
  • Keep your energy going.
  • Talk to others who are mentors, friends, safe supporters.
  • Feel good about any little 1% you add to your forward movement.
