Hi, I am having an RC in early April after diagnosis finalised in Jan. I don't want to sound oh woe is me but it's like that. Feel so lonely and very sad, hard to get on. Have to play it brave in front of my wife, but that has been the case my whole life and can't change now. . But generally it feels like no one cares, hardly hear from family, if at all. How can I get through this. Very dark place at the moment. Any advice from others who have had the same feelings, would be appreciated. Yes, I have tried snapping out of it, and tried mindfulness, but that I just can't do, mind is far too busy. TIA
