How to Ease Stress

Apr 12, 2024

Dr. Pamela Ginsberg offers tools and tips on how to ease stress and anxiety after a breast cancer diagnosis.

That being diagnosed with breast cancer is stressful is an understatement. It may be difficult to accept the diagnosis. You may feel overwhelmed by making so many decisions at once: Which doctor should you see? Which treatments should you have? Where should you have treatment? You may have concerns about how you’re going to keep up with your responsibilities at home and at work.

At the 2024 Living Beyond Breast Cancer Conference on Metastatic Breast Cancer, Dr. Ginsberg will be discussing the psychological effects of metastatic breast cancer. During this podcast, she talked about tools anyone who’s been diagnosed with any type of breast cancer, as well as caregivers, can use to manage stress and anxiety.

  • the most stress-inducing aspects of a breast cancer diagnosis
  • the factors that make caregivers stressed
  • how to tell the difference between stress and anxiety and depression
  • strategies and tools to manage stress and anxiety
