Managing anger
I haven't visited this site for quite some time as, to be honest, I don't want to hear any more about cancer. It has consumed my life for the last 12 months and as much as I want it over I know it ne...
Hi:):) Yes it's very normal I feel.Some time ago now,there was a post on here about this very thing.SO MANY ladies replied,which showed just how common it is to feel like this.This is one of the reasons that I like this network.I pretty much keep my BC stuff to myself day to day,but I come on here often,and it really helps me put things in perspective.When I log off on here,I just go about my daily stuff,but whenever I need some support or just to connect,I jump back here!!! I think that people don't mean to say the wrong thing,but because most of us haven't had experience with cancer before,then people try to tell a story that they think might help.They usually miss the mark!!! I think it's perfectly acceptable to tell people that you would rather not talk about your BC.Keep the conversations for the people you know ARE going to give you the support that you need.And this includes this fantastic network of ladies.Long after our friends are sick of hearing about it,the ladies on here are not!! Take care:) Cheers Robyn ox
