Family carers are neglecting their own mental health while devoting themselves around the clock to a loved one, according to an analysis of studies involving more than 81,000 carers, published in the journal Psychology & Health .

One in three carers said they wanted advice on available support, yet fewer than one in six had actually sought it. Those affected said they needed help dealing with loss, uncertainty and feelings of guilt.
