I started Dazey’s Diary for people who got handed a caregiving role they never really trained for—and for the “experienced” caregivers who still feel like they’re winging it every single day. If you’re looking for sugar-coated advice, this isn’t it. If you want real talk, practical support, and zero judgment, you’re in the right place.
Caregiving today is wild. Our loved ones are more tech-savvy than anyone expected. They look independent… right up until they’ve bypassed every safety setting, clicked a sketchy link, or almost given their Social Security number to “Customer Support.” Deep fakes look real, scams are everywhere, and half the time we’re just trying not to lose our minds while keeping everyone safe.
Here, we don’t pretend everything is “fine.” We talk about what actually works, what blows up in our faces, and the small things that make the day less chaotic. My story isn’t your story, but there’s overlap in the exhaustion, love, guilt, and 2 a.m. Googling. You’re not failing—you’re dealing with a lot. Your effort matters, even when no one sees it. You don’t have to earn support by being perfect. You’re allowed to need help, and you’re allowed to ask for it.
And if you know, you really know. #iykyk
