Experiencing grief and loss
After attending the 2nd National Young women with Breast Cancer Conference last weekend...it was a real eye opener as to how all these feelings of loss, angry, feeling down, anxious are quite normal....

Hi Belinda,
Thanks for posting this. I have suffered a lot of grief and anger and I know it is normal but it still can be hard to deal with. I totally agree with the thinking positive thing - I find I want to punch anyone who tells me to think positively. Being sad and feeling scared does not mean I am being negative. In general my outlook is very positive but telling me to be positive tends to ignore and negate what I am actually feeling as being part of the healing process.
