Hi everyone, hope you’re doing well today 💬
Depression and anxiety are common after a cerebrovascular accident (stroke), and they can have a big impact on both recovery and quality of life. These emotional struggles often go unrecognized, even though they are just as important to treat as physical symptoms.
🧠 If you’ve experienced depression or anxiety after a stroke, you’re not alone, and support is available.
💬 We’d love to hear from you:
Did you experience emotional or psychological challenges after your stroke?
What kind of support or treatment helped you most, counseling, medication, support groups?
Do you feel healthcare providers are doing enough to recognize and address post-stroke depression and anxiety?
