Unraveling!!

Has anyone used the bc psychology service?

Went into shock yesterday, had the worst fight with my partner of four years and now he wants me out! Told me I have to get my stuff out of the house within a week. Never seen that coming!!!

Had my op on Friday and it all went well.. my body is healing but my emotions are a mess! The one person who I thought would be there for me through this has not only been cruel, but hasnt shown me an inch of support since I came back from hospital!

Took me two hours to get dressed this morning.. cant eat food, too ashamed to let my family and friends know what is going on and just dont know how I am going to cope?

    Lani Now is not the time to be proud. Ashamed about what? You have nothing to be ashamed of. You need all the support you can get from family and friends! Tell them and allow them to take care of you.You should not and do not need to be on your own during this difficult time. All the best and get to a place of peace and rest as soon as you can.

    Hi Lani, I am so sorry you are going through this when you most need support. 

    I contacted my Breast Care nurse and got a referal to a psych who dealt with BC, this was free for six visits if your doctor prescribes it.  Previously I had been to a general psych who didn't seem to 'get it'. Also your BC nurse should be able to put you in contact with social workers who can help you emotionally and with practical issues.

    A big cyber hug, you will get through this, use this site as support and remember you are wonderful and special. x
