Why Good News Doesn’t Feel Like Relief
About this episode
Charlotte explores the complex emotions cancer caregivers experience when receiving good news.
The doctor says everything looks good, so why does your body still feel tense, exhausted, or unable to let go? In this episode, Charlotte explores why good or stable news can still land in a nervous system that has been bracing for bad news, and why relief, grief, and exhaustion often show up together for cancer caregivers.
