Tracey,
State of mind is paramount in your heailng! Ramble all you like! It does get tiresome, hearing the "keep positive" talk all the time...but like you said it's OK to be sad, to be angry, to withdraw a bit......Allow yourself to cry....REALLY cry, until you can't breathe cry...it took me a while to do that but once I did, what a weight off!
We are all to aware of how this experience effects everyone else and so, we push ur feelings to the bottom, for the sake of others feelings....for too long our feelings are left simmering....ready to explode at any time...and then when they do , most are shocked! I ended up telling everyone to stop! I wasn't going to pretend for the benefit of making them feel better about my cancer!
So you cry love, scream, yell, punch a pillow! You have been through hell and made it! I am so glad you have released your emotional pressure valve.....be kind to you....take care.....big cuddles
Xx
Tracy
