An alphabet of helpful hints: C is for Change.
Peter Limbrick
Change affects all of us. As practitioners we are affected by changes in our workplace and, if we are in a caring profession, by changes that happen to the people we care for. As parents we are affected by changes in our employment, in our family circumstances and by the changes that happen to our loved ones. Some changes are celebrated. Some are anticipated with dread and when they actually happen might make us want to dash for the exit, reach for the bottle (or our version of it), find a therapist, take anti-depressants or appeal to a higher being. We might go through grief, anger, depression and thoughts of suicide. We all seem to be vulnerable to change.
