It was 12 months this week since my own detection .... so I remember it well. :(
The meltdowns will continue to happen now and then .... small speed humps along the way and sometimes for no real reason ... This bloody BC mucks with our mind bigtime, damn it!
Big hugs coming your way ..... when you go to your next appointments, see if you can take a trusted buddy with you to listen in as a 2nd set of ears (and support!). Or at least record it on your phone as backup. It is difficult to take in all that is being said in the early days.
All the best. Xxx
The sleep issue is very common, sadly .... we try physical exercise, Melatonin, temase, ear plugs, eye masks and many other things to try and beat it ..... check out our Night Howls thread .... there is usually folk online most hours of the early morning to chat with!!
