Navigating mental health support after major surgery is crucial, post operative care as patients may experience a range of emotions, including anxiety, depression, and stress related to recovery. It's common to feel overwhelmed by physical limitations and the healing process. Patients should expect to receive psychological support from healthcare providers, which may include counseling, support groups, or medication if necessary. Open communication with family and friends can also help mitigate feelings of isolation. Setting realistic recovery goals and engaging in self-care practices, such as mindfulness or gentle exercise, can further support mental well-being during this challenging time.
