How do you cope emotionally

I was diagnosed last July, and became terminal in October. The first few months were fine but recently my mental healh is shot. I worry about the future for my husband constantly. I'm not sleeping, and find myself crying at all times day and night. 

Friends have disappeared since my diagnosis and my family live miles away. I don't find it easy to talk about how I'm feeling, not to ask for help. 

Sorry for sounding negative but it's hard to keep a brave face on things constantly.

Cheers

  • Hi there , so sorry to read your post . You can always find someone to talk to on here . If you don’t mind me saying , you really need to talk to someone even if it means having a good cry! Maggie’s are very good . You can either ring and talk to someone or ring and make an appointment to go in . It’s very hard putting a brave face on all the time , and talking it through can help. Maggie’s also offer courses , therapies etc so it’s worth googling them x Sending a hug and I wish you well !
