Hi Emma, thank you. It helps just to have someone say 'it's ok to feel this way'. My seratonin levels are so out of whack it's not funny lol. Am on medication to assist but might need to increase it at the moment. Each day I wake up quite calm and happy then the thought processes kick in and I overload myself with what I need to do and become overwhelmed. Stupid to do that I know but so hard to stop the brain. I have a new mantra though; love, trust, patience & joy. I also tell myself constantly, one step at a time, one foot after the other. I am finding the need to have treatment daily is affecting me, got to plan for it each day, time out of what I need or want to do. I know it is important and people treating me are fantastic for which I am very grateful. Got great hugs from the nurse and the radiotherapist yesterday which helped a lot. My acupuncturist told me that when I have a bowl of rice with too much on it, scrape some off. Very good advice and I am endeavouring to implement it. I love summer too and am soooooo grateful it is warmer now. Even went out without a cap or scarf yesterday and today, too darn hot to wear em and I just thought stuff it! It felt good!
Emma, your words made me feel as though I had been hugged. Thank you
