Some days, you may want to share an update. Other days, you may want to talk about a show, a funny memory, or what’s for dinner.
You get to choose.
If you’re facing breast cancer, you can say:
“Thank you for asking. I’d rather talk about something else today.”
If you’re supporting someone, try:
“Would you like to talk about how things are going, or catch up on something else?”
Then follow their lead. Spending time together can leave room for privacy, too.
This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let’s respect the person’s preferences alongside our wish to show we care.
Psych4U offers therapy and mental health care for people seeking a space to talk on their own terms.
