Once you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, you may find it hard to cope with. You’re likely to go through a whole range of emotions, including fear, anxiety, sadness, guilt, anger and depression. It’s important to remember that there is no right way to feel - everyone deals with things in their own way.
On this page, you’ll find a range of useful information and advice from Bupa’s experts on how to deal with depression and cancer.

It’s not unusual to feel sad and low when you’re dealing with cancer, with one in four people experiencing depression after their diagnosis. If you think you’ve got depression, it’s important to reach out and seek help as soon as you need it
Your doctor will be able to recommend several treatments, including counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and antidepressant medicines.

A cancer diagnosis can cause you to worry about the impact it will have on your family and your future. You may also feel anxious about tests and treatment. Sometimes anxiety can start to manifest physically, resulting in shortness of breath or panic attacks.
Opening up and talking about your worries can make a huge difference to your mental wellbeing. You could talk to a counsellor, a support group or your friends and family – whatever helps you cope.

We understand talking about cancer can be difficult. If you have cancer, it might help to write down your questions. Thinking about who to speak to is a good starting point. Our nurses are here to support you, helping you get the answers you need. Watch our video to find out more.
Dr Zoe:
When it comes to talking about cancer, I think that's the most important thing really is that people feel able to talk about it. If you are somebody who's been diagnosed with cancer, then it impacts on every part of your life. It's not just a physical disease. It will impact on your mental health. It will impact on your relationships, your family life, your work. And there will be lots of people who want to help and support you. So please do talk freely about it. Like you would, if you had osteoarthritis of the knee, this is a disease and you can talk about it. There's absolutely no shame.
Dr Zoe:
And when it comes to talking to your medical teams, there'll be a lot of information. You will have a lot of questions. So my advice is just keep a log of those questions. Just keep adding them to your phone when those questions come up in your mind. And then when you get the opportunity, you can make sure that they all get answered.
Dr Zoe:
And if you are somebody who is looking to support somebody that you care about, who's been diagnosed with cancer, don't be afraid to ask them how you can help. They might want to talk about their cancer and their treatment. They might absolutely not want to talk about it. Remember, they're still the person that they were before. They're not defined by their cancer. So just ask them if they want to talk about it and also ask them how you can be there for them and support them.

It's only now I'm out of the tunnel that I can really appreciate how dark it was
I was diagnosed with cancer twice and needed two big operations on my liver
I'm not from a big family, so I felt like I had no one to lean on
It was overwhelming, it got so hard for me to carry it all there was so much pressure and I was frightened
I was struggling with depression
I just remember going into a room and screaming and screaming and screaming
I couldn't go on, that's when I knew I couldn't deal with it myself
I was a Bupa member so I gave them a call
the oncology team were there for me straight away
I realised I wasn't on my own anymore
Bupa looked after me from that moment on and the help and counselling I've had from the mental health nurses has been excellent
they let me get everything off my chest
I feel like I'm having a coffee with a friend, just talking it over knowing I could speak to someone when I needed to has been a lifeline for me
I've never had to worry about my cover, no matter how long it took or how much it cost
Bupa just took care of it all and they will do, even if my illness comes back
Bupa's helped me to regain myself I don't know where I'd be without them

Eating a well-balanced diet is important for everyone, especially if you have cancer. Many people find that they lose weight when they have cancer, which can be due to cancer treatments like chemotherapy. Eating well can not only help you keep your strength up, it can also improve your mental wellbeing.

Keep active. Regular exercise can make you feel more positive, improve your general health and may help you to manage anxiety or depression.
Make sure you eat a well balanced diet as this can help you cope with treatment side effects, recover faster and give you more energy.
Try to establish a routine and get a good night's sleep. Properly relaxing can help improve your mental wellbeing and sleep is good for physical health.
Spending a lot of time indoors will affect your mental wellbeing, that's why it's important to stay connected to your friends and family. Make sure you keep talking about your cancer, as this can be comforting and make you feel less anxious.
