About this scorecard
Caregiver strain builds slowly, and most people notice it only when something breaks — their health, their temper or their job. A short regular check-in helps you see the trend early, while small changes still make a big difference. Re-score every 30 days and watch which way the number moves.
This is a self-reflection tool, not a diagnosis. If you are feeling hopeless, thinking about harming yourself, or worried you might harm the person you care for, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or 911 right now.
