I’m not coping. My fiancé has a terminal diagnosis and I’ve fallen apart. I can’t function, I’m not sleeping, I just can’t get on with it.

  • Hi @jimothy10

    So sorry to read about your fiancé, your reaction is totally normal even if somewhat difficult to cope with. Lack of sleep rapidly makes us unable to function and might be helped by your GP in the short term. Getting you on a level keel means you get the best of any time you have and are the best able to support when you are needed.

    <<hugs>>

    I’m just so sorry. I’m so glad I found this forum. It helps to see I’m ‘normal’ watching a loved one with a terminal diagnosis.

    I’m just so sorry. 
    mad mentioned previously sleep is key - I understand this as since my mother’s prognosis I too struggle with sleep.
