I haven't got mets and I can only dimly imagine how confusing and frustrating it must be to deal with. However during treatment, I got three side effects that I will have for the rest of my life. I wasn't expecting that, and felt pretty uncertain about who was going to emerge at the end of all this stuff. I thought about a support group but made the better decision (for me) of a one to one counsellor. It was an excellent move, and helped sort out my thinking immensely, immediately and ever since. I found it was really good to get someone with experience in talking to people with cancer. It wasn't the cancer, or the treatment, I needed to talk about, it was ageing and facing my own mortality. A relatively small number of sessions and I had turned a big corner! I hope you find it helpful if you decide on some counselling. Very best wishes.
