Where to?
I am 3 years and 3 months post diagnosis and I am still struggling to find my way out of this nightmare. I have some good days, but mostly days with fear as my constant companion. I function ok, ho...
Hi Roz
It sounds like you are in limbo - not knowing quite what to do next. If counselling is your thing then it may be worth it. You haven't fought cancer to not enjoy life and to be fearful.
Only you know the map - it will work it's own way out as you go. I too have similar questions. I wonder where I will end up but part of me is enjoying that at the moment I don't know and that it is probably somewhere I never thought I wouldn't end up. I don't think that people who haven't been through cancer understand this - I never did. I thought talk of "the Journey" was cliche and a bit of rubbish but now I realise how true it is.
It must be difficult not to be feeling anything - like you have disassociated yourself from you. It seems like it is time to reconnect, to find joy and peace without fear. Go for it. Don't be scared to ask for help.
As Tonya said - there is no set timeframe - be open to your heart and to change - embrace it.
