I've noticed the progressive isolation that occurs. My spouse would go to weekly art classes and then less and then none. She would host annual reunion for her high school class, now that is not possible. What I have found useful is to set goals for myself and work on those. I guess we have to be a caregiver to ourself too. It is important for our well being to feel engaged with family and friends. There are tasks to prepare for the future. Routine has its benefits. Take the wins during the day and don't dwell on the illogical. It does no good to get down on ourself as caregivers.
