I got diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer 2 months ago but had to have an mri and still waiting on results so I’m very scared and nervous so my head is not in the best place I live with my husband and 14 year old son but when I get down they both argue with me to the point I have to walk out and have nowhere to go so I end up walking the streets but I also feel like they gang up on me so that makes me feel so alone and just want to deal with all this my self

Hi there

It's awful feeling alone when you really need others the most. I find my loved ones tend to have a hard time with anything they perceive as negative and, much like you've described with regards to your husband and son, if I express feeling bad about anything, they argue against it and try to talk me out of it. I recognise that they do this to try to fix the situation, but unfortunately I find it actually makes things worse.

I have accepted this about them now so I take the support they can provide and find what they can't elsewhere - such as on here! I've also been referred for counselling through my BCN team and that should be available to you if it's something you might be interested in considering.

Hope this helps somewhat and if you ever need to rant or vent or have a virtual cry and you need support, we're all here. x
