Summary

This study aims to understand how the ability to identify and describe specific emotions (called "emotional granularity") influences coping and adaptation ("resilience") in young and middle-aged colorectal cancer survivors.

The main questions to be answer are:

1. How does emotional granularity help build resilience during cancer recovery?
2. How does emotion regulation contribute to resilience building?
3. What specific emotional needs and challenges do survivors experience?

This is an observational study where no experimental treatments are provided. Participants will complete an online questionnaire about background, emotions, ways of managing emotions, and ability to cope with stress. A subset of participants will then be invited to take part in a private, 30-60 minute interview to share personal experiences and feelings in more detail.
