Breast Cancer Now Forum

Hello  So sorry to hear you are feeling so desperate right now. 😢 Cancer is so cruel and I for one thought after my treatment had finished I would start to feel better again..... how wrong was I!! I have been struggling since I wrote the message on here tbh. Recently I called Macmillan because my feelings were so overwhelming I found myself not copying at all. Feeling lost, empty with no confidence or self esteem. Paranoid my fiancé doesnt see me in a sexual way anymore and would prefer to look at other women. I feel inadequate and ugly.  You are not alone. 💕 macmillan have been amazing, they have arranged an assessment with BUPA to see if I qualify for counselling and what support they can offer to help me feel better again. I should be hearing from them soon. My days are very up and down too. Have you reached out to Macmillan? Im the same as you, I’m pushing my partner away because I’m resenting him for no reason at all. I suppose it’s because I don’t think he sees me as an attractive sexual women anymore. I hate what I see when I look in the mirror too. My hair is growing but my lashes have since fallen out again due to Letrozole. That doesn’t help as they frame your face and made me feel more attractive and like my old self.  Have a read of the other replies I received on here. Some links and articles are worth a read. Never give up, I’m not going too. We have family and children that love us... that’s worth getting well for. it’s a struggle I know. Always here Louise x     ... View more
