A brain tumor can change how you think, speak and feel, and those changes can be hard to explain to other people. ShareWell has free online support groups for people living with serious illness, where you can go at your own pace and nobody minds if you lose your place.

Topic context

Understanding brain tumor

A brain tumor, whether it is a glioblastoma, a meningioma or another type, and whether it is cancerous or benign, can affect memory, speech, mood, movement and energy. Some people have seizures, and many have to stop driving for a time and rely on others to get around.

Why it helps

How peer support helps with brain tumor

Peer support can help with a brain tumor because changes in thinking and personality are hard to describe to people who knew you before. A patient group accepts you as you are today.

Inside the room

What brain tumor groups often cover

  • Memory, concentration and finding the right word
  • Losing the ability to drive or work for a time
  • Feeling like a different person than before
  • Uncertainty and the fear that the tumor will return

ShareWell groups are peer support and do not give medical advice, so please keep working with your care team on anything about diagnosis or treatment. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Good fit for

Who these groups may help

  • People with a brain tumor, including those told a benign tumor is nothing to worry about
  • People recovering from brain surgery or radiation
  • Anyone grieving a loss of independence

Frequently asked questions

Is this group just for people with brain tumors?

No. Until a brain tumor group exists on ShareWell, this page points to groups for people with serious illness in general, next to low-key sessions like breathwork and meditation.

What if I lose my train of thought while speaking?

That is fine. You can pause, start again or pass, and members are patient.

Is a non-cancerous tumor included?

Yes. The effects on daily life can be just as significant, and you are welcome.

Where can I find medical information about brain tumors?

The American Brain Tumor Association (abta.org) has patient information and a CareLine at 800-886-2282, and the National Brain Tumor Society (braintumor.org) lists support for patients and care partners.
