| Abstract | In this paper, we aim to uncover the challenges faced by family caregivers caring for a depressed sufferer and consider ways to support their well-being with the use of technology. To understand the burden of caregivers and how they handle their stress, we conducted in-depth interviews with 15 individuals who have cared for a depressed family member. Through the interviews, we describe the multifaceted dilemma they faced. Based on our findings, we suggest design implications for technologies to improve the wellness of caregivers who are looking after depressed family members. |
