Hi I have been diagnosed with TNBC last December.
Finding it difficult to come to terms. Depressed and anxious all the time.
Hi Samosa
It's natural to find things difficult at first but TNBC is definitely treatable. I was diagnosed in April 2022 and now back to enjoying life.
Hi thank you for the motivation I just feel like i can't go on with enjoying life I'm halfway into my chemo then a lumpectomy then imonopheraphy. I feel so low and depressed thinking about it everyday.
I agree that it can all feel overwhelming. I had my treatment in a different order - lumpectomy, followed by chemotherapy and then radiotherapy. When I was diagnosed immunotherapy wasn't available as a treatment.
To get through it I tried to just concentrate on each stage. We have a motorhome so each week we'd go away for 3 days in between my chemo. Only locally, but it felt like normal life and gave me something to look forward to in between treatment. Maybe you could do something similar, give yourself something to look forward to or a treat in between each session?
