Cancer

Tests have shown that patients with cancer have a high risk of developing depression.

On average 25% of all cancer patients will develop depression at some point in the course of their disease.

The latest studies show that it is important to treat depression in connection with a serious physical disease.

You feel twice as ill if you are suffering from both a physical and psychological disease. It will take you longer to recover. If you have cancer, it can actually affect your life expectancy if you don't get treated for your depression.
