how do you cope with your anxiety 

  • Hi Doreen

    I think we all have some anxiety after going through the cancer journey. 

    It does take time to come to terms with things and you are doing the right thing in talking to your Macmillan buddy, going to counselling and keeping in contact with your GP.

    I still recommend the HOPE course that you can access through Macmillan. It's all free and some of the activities I found really helpful.

    For me personally if I am feeling anxious I find moving helps-so if I am inside I go out for some fresh air or a walk. Sitting at home and thinking can make it feel worse. 

    I am not sure what support you have around you but chatting to friends and family helped. 

    Jane
