Discussion Series is a program sponsored by Stupid Cancer to take a deep dive into the most important issues facing adolescents and young adults. This month the topic is connection and isolation. This two-week discussion session series is an opportunity to explore these issues while connecting with other AYAs.
Discussion 2: Coping with Isolation: The Loneliness of Cancer
One side effect of cancer that isn’t always acknowledged is the pain of loneliness caused by feelings of isolation. You may no longer be well enough to participate in social activities that help you feel connected. Friends and family may not always live close and if they do they might feel uncomfortable talking about your cancer experience. Join this session to connect with other AYAs that understand the isolation that can be associated with a cancer diagnosis.
