Hi I just like to know if am not the only one who has days of on and off crying then feeling angry then feeling guilty because I have a great team of doctors that are helping me stay and beable to have more time with my family I end up saying to my self God forgive me theirs worse people off than me then I cry again because I've been selfish this is how I feel regular is their anyone the same xxx

  • Definitely not alone. Feel very similar myself and very up and down.

  • It's definitely not selfish and there's little point comparing or looking for people worse off. You are dealing with what you're dealing with yourself and it's hard.

  • Thank you for replying am sorry you are going through the same emotions but it's good to know am not on my own thankyou xx

  • It’s hormones and you can’t help it. I went to my GPvearly on and they recommended talking therapy but that takes too long. I’ve just started antidepressants and I’m about 5 days in the anxiety and depression are starting to ease but I feel tired. 
    talk to your Gp 

  • Hello Rosebud,I often look in on this site and used iton occasion Now I find myself still looking but not joining in.I seem to have less and less to say.Like you and so many others I appreciate the fantastic work of all the professionals,know I'm better off than many others,am loved by my family and so much more.I have responded by being as positive and as cheerful as possible.I was coping well but recently lots more tests going on . The truth is I'm ,like you ,up and down.I cry (a lot) usually when I can't sleep for thinking or when adverts for charities come on the TV.Whether it be for people in need or animals is immaterial,I cry.I realise now that I am probably depressed and my next step is to actually make that appointment with the Dr and get some help and use my local Macmillan's .Do see your Dr Rosebud and keep speaking here or with your local group.I think you are responding normally to a rubbish situation.Goodluck.

  • You're definitely not alone, I too have had my moments and no doubt will have many more!
