Don't no what else to do/try, someone please help!!

Hi, 

I don't really no what to say. This is the second time I've been through surgery to have melanomas removed and busy under going radiotherapy. 

I've tried talking to friends and some family but I don't think they understand how I'm feeling as I can't express on how I feel. 

Decided to totally binge the other night and got really drunk but I no that it's not the answer to how I'm feeling, I just wanted to forget about everything. 

Was wondering if there were anyone out there who have any coping strategies with feeling massively alone and depressed but struggle to make there feeling heard, or find it hard to open up at all? 

Thanks

  • Hi Paul. 

    Thanks for the advice, would never have thought about going down that road. I'm learning that I have to ask and stop putting a stupid grin on my face and think everything will be fine.

  • Dont pretend your not hurting as how does yourfamile know look on internet about how to treat people in your position and let them read it the other peace of advice and it so important is drink lots of fluids i tell everyone now vitamin c and there are suplements look for antioxidants read about free radicals and how they effect your body then make your own judgements turmeric is popular suplement read about that thousands say it helps some say it doesnt but ask your dr if its ok to use i think a few suffers will drop bye and give you there oppinions if you post it ask [@Chriss]‍ she will along shortly a lovely lady .hope you can get some help you sound truely worried to say the least and you do have my upmost sympathys  your family are probably at a loss what to do or say best it not somthingspeople have to deal with its not like a cold best wishs to you regards paul ps and dont drink it dehydrates you
