It is so very normal to feel fear and worry after being dx. It takes time for the mind to accept and then feel control again. In the early months of my
dx. I went through times that I was so worried I wondered when will I be myself again? I had a dream one night that a dr. was telling me I had bc.
I was so upset in the dream that it woke me up out of my sleep. In those first moments of the sleepy haze I could not remember if I was dreaming
or if it was real and I felt a slight panic.

I think it is important to realize that a dx of cancer does not mean instant doom. You mentioned you caught your disease in the early stages which
is in your favor, you are taking hercpetin another favorable treatment.
As you can see there are so many gals on this site who are doing extremely well (Thank God).....Just try to remember that you are doing
everything you can to help yourself. What may help you is learning everything you can about bc which may help you to feel more in control. Knowledge is power.

As far as your feelings about people around you may not wanting to listen, well
you just come right here....everyone on the site understands the ups and the downs....just keep telling yourself "You Will Survive" and believe it.

All Good Wishes,
Jean
