Depressed and crying all the time

I have just had my fourth session of chemotherapy, two to go but this time I am feeling very depressed and crying alll the time how canIi overcome this?

  • Hi ya ...

    Well I cried loads ... once for two days at the start of my journey ... and I'd not had chemo ... so you know your going through one of the hardest times you'll have in life .. it's like climbing a mountain ... the further up you go, the harder it is ... and wanting to give up and roll back down ... but you know it's the fight of your life ... and just take one step at a time ... and one day you'll get to the top .. and the view from the top is worth all the heartache ...

    There's another lass on here, in the middle of her chemo ... I'll ask her to pop by and chat ... she's so lovely .. and she's having rough time with the effects .. so you hold on in there ... cancer wants us to give up .. it wants us to give in ... but it isn't about being strong ... it's about being scared witless but still doing what you have to... that's strong .. one day at a time ...
