Breast Cancer Awareness Month

When you think of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it's likely that you think about self-breast exams, a previous scare, or possibly an even more serious situation. While those are all important, and potentially the most important things to think about during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it’s also important to think about the mental health implications that a diagnosis, or even a scare can cause. 

Breast cancer scares and treatment can bring side effects such as insomnia, memory changes and mood swings. Hormone level changes can influence your emotions, and weight gain can be discouraging. Some women self-blame while others feel punished. While these are all natural side-effects, you don’t have to deal with them alone. 

If you or someone you know is struggling, we can help.
