Today I'm feeling totally overwhelmed with sadness. My partner of 9 years left just over a month ago and I'm struggling to come to terms with it. I feel so alone on this awful journey, I can't see any light or happiness ahead of me. I'm scared of what the future holds and how alone I'll be....I don't know how to claw my way out of what feels like a black hole.

  • Hi I'm so sorry you're going through such a tough and dark time at the moment.  To have your partner leave you in the middle of treatment is awful but if that's the type of person they are then you are better off without them even if it doesn't feel like it at the moment.

    Sometimes it can feel like the bad days will never end but they do.  You need time to grieve your relationship and adjust.  Focus on yourself and your treatment and take it one day at a time.  Be kind and patient with yourself, do things with friends and try and get out in the fresh air and walk and be around people.

    Wishing you all the best x
