Abstract
Managing mental health is challenging for everyone, but it is particularly difficult for cancer survivors. Several mental health issues are common among cancer survivors, such as depression, anxiety, guilt, fear, financial and physical limitations, grief, and cognitive impairment. This cognitive impairment, often referred to as "chemobrain" by patients, is formally known as chemotherapy-induced cognitive impairment (CICI) or cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI). It can arise with or without chemotherapy. Healthy People 2020 highlighted the need to improve the mental and physical health-related quality of life for these individuals.
