Hi there, I think it is perfectly normal to feel rather lost and panicked after finishing active treatment. You spend so long going from appointment to appointment, from tests to diagnosis to treatments and more tests that it's only when it stops that you sit back and realise the toll it has taken, both physically and emotionally. I have had fantastic help from chatting to the wonderfully caring folk on here,  expressing your fears to people who really understand can be a great relief and I hope you come to find this too. In my case I have also been invited to attend a Moving Forward course run by Breast Cancer Care which is focused on exactly this issue, what to do after treatment has stopped, it covers different topics all relating to ongoing recovery. Perhaps Macmillan can suggest a similiar kind of course for you? Their website details different support groups and/or individual counselling sessions too. The main aim is to realise that you are not just abandoned after treatment is over and that there is help out there for all of us, whatever the issues. Take care of yourself and do let me know how you get on.  Sue xx

Thank you so much Sue, it always helps when you know that what you are feeling is 'normal' and that you're not the only one. All the best with your recovery. Take care Lisa x
