I’m so angry and emotional and I don’t know why

I was diagnosed with early breast cancer dec24. It was successfully operated on, 5 months later I was diagnosed with early lung cancer, which was operated on. I’m constantly crying at the drop of a hat over nothing and it’s driving every one mad. I spend days in my own in my bedroom so I won’t upset people. I feel like a really miserable person, who just can’t snap out of this

  • I don't know where you are so can't offer specific advice but do check online about services/support groups local to you. You could approach your GP surgery and see if they offer any assistance. You need to be talking - either to people in a similar situation or to professionals. You're not alone, although it may feel like it, but you need to initiate interaction with others outside your current family/friendship circle. 

    Nothing changes of its own accord, you need to make changes in your daily life - perhaps find, start or resume an interest that gets you outside. A walk every day might be a good way to start.

    Wishing you well.

  • please don’t beat yourself up!!! you have been through an awful time and you can’t be expected to be the life and soul of the party right now!

    have your spoken to your gp about how you are feeling? please don’t bottle up your feelings and suffer on your own! there is help out there, you just need to find it. 

    you will be ok, i know it.xx
