Re: Half Way Through Chemo
It's hard to be positive when you are weak and in pain. The only times I have come close to depression is when I have had really tough chemo like you are having now. Once my body recovered I felt better emotionally. All I can suggest is to remember "this too will pass" and you will feel better again when you have had time to recover-but that may not be till a couple of weeks after the chemo is over. Don't expect too much of yourself till then. Hoping things will go well,
Trish
