One of 'those' days
It's a cry'n' in the shower, how the F did I get here and 'how do I move forward with my life' kinda day. Emotional, achey, everthing's such an effort. Wondering if it's all worth it. Sigh, tomorrow's another day.

- kmakmMemberThanks @Molly001. I've had a little cry and now I'm going to pull up my big girl socks and try for a short walk to improve my mental health. Sunny here today, so the Vit D should help too.

Hope it makes you feel better to know no matter how far along the journey we are we sometimes have one of those days! It's the reality of where you are at and the unknown!
Allow yourself some quiet time for reflection and find time for something for you alone, if you can within your busy household, even if it is to read a chapter in a book, listen to a song or a drop of fresh air!
If the fog of sadness hangs around then perhaps try the helpline at BCNA
Take care - Molly001MemberSorry to hear that @kmakm. Hopefully will pass soon. Getting pain and fatigue under controll is half the battle, so lack of sleep is not good!
- kmakmMemberSigh. I had a terrible night's sleep and now I am having one of 'those' days myself...
- Molly001MemberThank you wonderful ladies. I knew you'd understand. No point telling the fam 'cos I'm 'cured' and meant to be so very grateful, which I am, but I still sometimes get down at the shitt'n' mess it's left behind in every single aspect of my being. Nevertheless, my mood is slightly better today despite my lower back giving me hell. Back to the oncol next Thurs to investigate. Mystery pains that won't go away, ongoing fatigue, poor mental health and two demanding littlies and my oncol is wondering if I'm back to 'normal' with work etc as I finished active treatment in Sept. Ha! I'm only 40 but feel 80 atm. If I had a single scrap of vitality I'd stand up to the bully in my life, which would greatly improve my mental state, but, alas, stuck in the rut for now but with plenty of positives to keep me optomistic and trudging along.
- LondogMemberI felt exactly the same. All my thoughts were so negative and I just wanted to feel sorry for myself. Curl up an lick my wounds. I feel better today. It felt good to release the sadness! Good night's sleep.
