Why is Emotional Overwhelm Common in Cancer Patients?
A cancer diagnosis can be a life-altering event, triggering a range of emotions from fear and anxiety to anger and sadness. Patients may feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information they need to process, the decisions they need to make, and the physical and psychological toll of the disease and its treatment. The uncertainty surrounding the future and the potential changes in lifestyle contribute significantly to this emotional burden.
