This bit isn't fun either
Everyone around me expects me to be party central three weeks after finishing treatment. I thought I'd be happy too.

I have heard that it can take double the time after our active treatment to start to feel somewhat "normal". For me that was the case, I had 18 months of active treatment, so that means 36 months to start to feel I can "sort of" move forward. For me that was May this year. It can be a long haul, but don't be hard on yourself, and don't listen to those that expect you should be over it by now! This stuff is exhausting, just be kind to yourself and you don't need to explain to anyone. True, it isn't fun! But eventually you find your own comfort zone, and your OWN timeframe, it really can be an assault on the body and mind, what we have been through. Best wishes. xx
