The SCAD Warrior App

The SCAD Warrior app is a collection of self-paced modules designed to help you and your loved ones in your recovery from SCAD. Our team from the University of Colorado, Stanford, Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard, Vancouver General Hospital, SCAD Alliance, and other contributors have created this resource to be helpful to you whether you just experienced SCAD or if you are weeks, months or years out from your SCAD. We hope you'll find ideas and strategies to help you:

• navigate a new reality
• manage stress
• care for yourself behaviorally, cognitively, emotionally, and physically
• pace your activities
• manage expectations of yourself
• identify values and enact behaviors and choices
• form healthy relationships with others
• access the kind of social support you need
• develop and maintain a social network.

Although SCAD can be distressing, it also can be a transformative experience in positive ways. We hope that the tools and information presented here will help you make healthy and meaningful transformations in your post-SCAD life. ❤

As a contributor to the SCAD Warrior project, SCAD Alliance is proud to host the SCAD Warrior resources on its website. The SCAD Warrior team is grateful for this valuable collaboration, and we hope this new platform will create a seamless and user-friendly experience for SCAD survivors.
