Did you know that up to 90% of breast cancer survivors experience PTSD symptoms after diagnosis? Many women struggle with anxiety, emotional numbness, and hypervigilance long after treatment ends—but they often feel like they should be "over it" by now.

In today's episode of Better Than Before Breast Cancer, I'm diving deep into: ✅ How common PTSD is after breast cancer (with real statistics and research) ✅ The hidden ways PTSD impacts your daily life, relationships, and physical health ✅ Why women resist emotional support and think they should "just handle it" alone ✅ How seeking help can actually improve both PTSD symptoms and long-term health ✅ Where to find professional, peer, and holistic support options

If you've ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or like you "should be doing better" after breast cancer, this episode is for you. You don't have to figure this out alone. Healing is possible, and support is available.
