Hearing that you have cancer is one of the most devastating news. From asking “why me” to dealing with physical and mental pain, you are bound to feel a rush of emotions. During this difficult time, the one thing doctors and everyone around you tell you is to stay positive. It is easier said than done, of course, but the reason why doctors ask you to be optimistic is because of the effect it can have on your health.

It is easy to fall into depression when you are dealing with cancer. When you are feeling low, you tend to skip an appointment or miss a medication. The determination and motivation to do your routine activities only come from a positive attitude. 

Being mindful and working towards being positive can go a long way toward successful treatments. However, you might ask yourself how you can bring in that ray of positivity during a difficult time. The few things that help almost everyone is being around loved ones, staying involved in activities that you love doing, reaching out to mental health experts, etc.
