I began breast cancer treatment in February 2013, chemo and radiotherapy, and now Tamoxifen. During the next few years I was very positive and carried on with most things, returning to work full-time working with young people  I was almost in denial, and thought this is an illness I will fight and get on with life.  I never allowed myself to actually sit down and think about it.  I always put on a brave face, and people would say how well I was doing.  Some would say this is the best way, and good on you.  It is only now after 2 1/2 years I have actually thought about what I went through, and am now able to talk about it to other people.  I would never have written on an internet site about it, but it actually helps me to come to terms with things.  I am lucky and feel quite well now.  But feel guilty that sometimes I feel quite down in the dumps.

I now feel a weight has been lifted being able to write this.

Has anyone else felt like this?
