Is this as good as it gets?

I can totally relate Chanel.  I have moments where I totally hit a wall and cry for no apparent reason.  I have had panic attacks come on for no reason too, right in the middle of Woollies and then had to run out the doors like a bewildered animal.  There are the better days too, but when I am down I feel very isolated and scared.  I have learned to allow myself to stay there in those dark moments for only a little while before I pick myself back up and force myself to carry on.  It is sooo much better than to try and avoid or deny the dark moments.  But I always get up and out of the pit and I think that is where some people might get stuck.  I wish I could give you a great big hug and hoping that today is a better day for you xxx. 

It is a tough trip and full of emotions good and bad, Sending you a big hug xx

Words that resonate with me very much. Thankyou x. I also had a fall 2 weeks ago.   Slipped on my lounge floor on a piece of paper.  Landed on my surgery side , fractured ribs and sprained ankle later, I'm back to resting and more healing time. So I guess that would add to my feeling down . This year has been awful but we get through somehow. We are stronger than we realise. Love and hugs xxx

Sending the biggest HUG from me!!! Its just so incredibly normal, and you are right, its not that we are not grateful for so many things, but its hard to escape the many emotions spiralling inside sometimes. I think when you are sad allow yourself to be upset, because I find you move through it better and you always pick back up. Up and down it will always be, but knowing you won't get stuck there is good.

Hang in there, bit by bit, sometimes theres nothing wrong with just sitting in the moment, it really is all we ever have...and the only place where everything fades away and is peaceful.

Hey you have up days and down. I am over 6mths in and still have bad days. I don't interact much on those days but sometimes its only half a day and that's a plus. :)

I had such sadness through treatment and even after. So tired of the fear. Physically exhausted. Not crying quite so much like at the beginning but my zest for life had left me. Then slowly it just changed. I cannot pinpoint why or when...but it changed. I started to believe instead of dying from this disease that I would live. Joy and energy has returned. It's  a long and grueling road...but it will happen. Take all the time you need to heal. Kath x

Hi Chanel just sending you hugs and love. Some days are better than others. Some days you have to fight through the bad days to earn the best bays of your life. Hope tomorrow is a better day Wendy h 67
