Therapy, Self-Care & Community: Caregiver Wisdom #hirshbergfoundation #caregiver #cancersupport

“You cannot help your loved one if you don't help yourself first.” ‪@TheBaylorStrongProject‬ For World Mental Health Day, we’re sharing a powerful reminder from caregiver Ashley Baylor, who spoke on our Survivor & Caregiver Panel at this year’s Symposium. Drawing from her experience caring for her father, Ashley shares three essential tips for caregivers: 1️⃣ Take care of yourself first—your well-being matters 2️⃣ Start therapy early—it can help you process the trauma and unknowns 3️⃣ Find a community—you’re not meant to carry this alone Mental health is not a luxury it’s a necessity, especially when navigating the challenges of a cancer diagnosis. Whether you're a patient, caregiver, or grieving a loved one, you deserve support 💜 We’re here for you with resources, community, and connection. #WorldMentalHealthDay #CaregiverSupport #PancreaticCancerAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #HirshbergFoundation #TherapyIsHealing #YouAreNotAlone #SurvivorCaregiverVoices
