Mental Health and Cancer

Cancer is scary and hard. Whether you’re experiencing scanxiety, grief for the life you once had, fear about the future, or anger over what cancer has done to your body and your life, we’re here to help. Check out our guides to learn things that can help you navigate these feelings, no matter what stage of diagnosis and treatment you’re at.

Your Support System

No matter where you are in your cancer diagnosis and treatment, you need support. When you think about your support system, think of the whole picture. Everyone from the person who goes to your appointments with you and makes you meals, to the neighbor you might call when you forget something at the store, to your friends who you send memes back and forth with all day. Whether someone is supporting you through acts of service, providing a good laugh or shoulder to cry on, or just a way to disconnect from thinking about cancer 24/7, they’re part of your support system. 

If you don’t have a support system or your support system needs help we’re here for you.
