CommunitiesBreast Cancer Clinical TrialsI have estrogen positive stage 2 breast cancer. I am 7 wks out of being done with chemotherapy. Then I get a break to heal, then surgery, then radiation, then hormone blocker therapy for 5 yrs. My emotions and what not are all over the place. There are days I feel fine and days I just want to sleep. I am exhausted and tired of this. I find myself crying and asking myself why me? Right now I am depressed.... I don't want this at all. I want to be done with everything and start to feel normal again.

Your feelings are completely valid during this challenging time in your treatment journey. The emotional ups and downs you're experiencing are common responses to cancer treatment, and reaching out to this community shows incredible strength. Many others here have walked similar paths and understand the exhaustion and range of emotions that come with treatment. Consider sharing your experiences and connecting with others who can offer support and understanding during this difficult phase.

Just concentrate on the one next step you need to take and no further. Then move on to the next step. I would mention depression to your oncologist. Medication could possibly help you

I’m going through the exact same thing right now. I’m just starting Chemo tomorrow and scared to death. Just got my port last week. After chemo I get surgery, then radiation then the same hormone blockers for 5 years. I’m all over the place just like you. Some days I think I’m ok and other days I break down and cry. This just came out of left field. I haven’t been able to sleep, eat and losing weight since diagnosis. I hope the best for you . Hope Chemo wasn’t to bad . ❤️
