It's the waiting which is increasing my anxiety, mornings seem to be the worst time for me, I've no idea why, I just feel worse at this time of day than any other. You sound like you had the same scenario process as I'm having. My husband wishes I had abit more go in me and abit more upeat, he's incredibly supportive, he just doesn't like seeing me so unhappy, I really do try but until this op is done I'm finding being my normal happy self very difficult xx ...

Hi steph, mine is in the right breast too. I have very little motivation and it's not like me at all, I find everyday tasks hard at the moment and I don't like being out of the house, home at the mo is my comfort zone, I want to be me again but I guess it all takes time. I seem to be crying alot, sometimes the tears will come out of nowhere, I could be anywhere and suddenly the tears will come. Thank you for wishing me luck. I really do appreciate all the support xxx ... View more

Hi, yes we do sound similar in alot of things brenda. Bless your heart, we all need friends to help pick us up when we feel abit anxious at times. I'll definitely keep in touch and let you know how I'm doing after surgery. Will think of you next week. I'm sure I'll be on here again before Monday, just that re assurance to keep me abit calm.

Yes I do over think everything and going through the "what ifs", which I know is wrong, but my mind went into overdrive when I was first told. It really has helped me already being able to talk on here, I know you understand how I feel emotionally, each time I feel I'm having abit of a moment I'll remind myself of what you've all said. I'm so grateful xx ... View more

I am mad one minute then calm the next, that's exactly how I am. I find it hard to go out of the house, I get very anxious and abit shakey at times, I suffer with anxiety and at the moment I can't seem to break this wall around me (if you know what i mean). People who have been through this tell me the surgery isn't that bad, like you've told me, I just have to start believing. I do have people I can talk to, volunteers who have been through this journey, their details were given to me by the hospital, they are amazing. I've had negative comments too, which really haven't helped me. Thank you so much xx ... View more
