Emotional Support
Supporting Your Emotional Wellbeing
Living with a pituitary condition can affect much more than your physical health. Whether you are newly diagnosed, adjusting to treatment, living with long-term symptoms, or supporting a loved one, it is completely normal to experience feelings of uncertainty, anxiety, stress, grief, or isolation.
At Pituitary Ireland, we recognise that emotional wellbeing is an important part of living well with a rare pituitary condition. That's why we are pleased to signpost our community to the RareMinds Wellbeing Hub—a free online resource created specifically for people living with rare conditions and their families.
