3 Game-Changing Hacks to Survive Scanxiety Weeks

Scanxiety can paralyze you—let’s talk about how to break free and take back control.

​

If you’ve ever found yourself staring at a pile of laundry, unable to move, you’re not alone.

​

Scanxiety (the overwhelming stress leading up to a loved one’s medical scans) can make even the simplest tasks feel impossible. And yet, each time, we forget just how heavy this anxiety can be.

​

The truth?

You don’t have to keep reliving this cycle.

​

Instead of pushing through and hoping it gets easier, let’s make a plan.

• What if you accepted that scanxiety will slow you down and adjusted your expectations?
• What if you prepped ahead of time, delegated tasks, or simply gave yourself permission to let go of the less urgent things?

​

In this episode, we dive into real strategies for shifting priorities, reducing stress, and actually taking care of yourself in the midst of scanxiety.

​

Whether it’s outsourcing small tasks, setting boundaries, or simply acknowledging that this time is different, I'm here to help you navigate it with more ease and less guilt.

The 3-Day Scanxiety Plan

​

A structured approach to handling the most intense days of scanxiety can make all the difference. Here’s a simple plan to support yourself:

• Day Before: Minimize stressors. Avoid big decisions or commitments. Spend quality time with your loved one and prepare for the next day in small, manageable ways.
• Day Of: Clear your schedule as much as possible. Delegate responsibilities, avoid unnecessary tasks, and focus only on the essentials. Give yourself grace.
• Day After: Plan a slower start to your day. Acknowledge the emotional toll, reflect on what you just went through, and take a moment to breathe. Ease back into routine at your own pace.
