The Impact on Mental Health from Living with Lymphoma

Lymphoma can lead to a lot of uncertainty and fear. How will you deal with treatments? How will you pay for those treatments? How long will you be able to fight it? These questions can eat you up inside and make it seem like you have lost complete control. Some symptoms like night sweats can coincide with nightmares and insomnia, which can further aggravate anxious thoughts. Being gripped by this new fear can be incredibly hard for anyone to deal with, especially those that are already fighting lymphoma.

Thankfully, there are ways to calm your anxious thoughts and have a healthier mind. Calming these thoughts will reduce your stress, help you get better sleep, and give you more energy to tackle the challenges you will face in your day to day.
