How to cope

Hi akaye76​ , Thank you for sharing so honestly - receiving a metastatic diagnosis is incredibly overwhelming, and it’s completely normal to have days where staying positive feels out of reach. 'Coping' looks different for everyone, but many find it helps to just take things one day at a time and allow space for all feelings - both the hopeful and the hard ones. You don’t have to be positive all the time; giving yourself permission to feel what you feel is part of the journey. Some people lean on support groups, mindfulness, journaling, or connecting with others who truly understand. This community is here for you whenever you need to talk, or even help you make a game plan for any challenging conversations about metatastic breast cancer you feel you want to have with your children.

Sending you warmth and strength - you’re not alone in this, we are all stonger together - please reach out to the helpline if you need anything at all 💜
