    public function index(Request $request)
    {
        dd(\Carbon\Carbon::parse('2019-08-03')->diffForHumans('2019-08-13'));

    }

Answer 1

First of all diffForHumans don't take any arguments.If just removing the date from diffForHumans won't work..

Try this:

use Carbon\Carbon;
    public function index(Request $request)
    {
        dd(Carbon::createFromFormat('Y-m-d','2019-08-03')->diffForHumans());

    }
