to feel so pathetic?

[user4627111]

Yesterday was my cancerversary (2 years). I knew it would probably effect me mentally so I was extra kind to myself all week, treated myself to a few bits to try and take my mind off things. Had a couple of nights of poor sleep because my brain wouldn't turn off.
So went to work yesterday felt ok, then had my annual review with my manager in her office and I started having flash backs to sitting in the consultants room and him telling me I have cancer.
I started having a panic attack and ended up walking out. I feel so pathetic 😢

You're not pathetic 💐

You are not at all pathetic 🌻 please keep being kind to yourself

Not pathetic at all. Very human

Absolutely not pathetic!! What you went through must have certainly been traumatic, so please give yourself a break. Wishing you good health

You're not pathetic at all. It's been 12 years this year for me, and while I gets better for sure I still struggle with it all sometimes. Don't underestimate the impact it has had on you and the way it will have changed you forever. If you feel sad, feel sad, it's completely fine, even if you recovered. Feel free to DM me if you ever want x

Cancer is a killer, it kills people, you had a traumatic experience, I wouldn’t call reacting to that pathetic.

Oh you are so very far from pathetic @user4627111

You are the exact opposite of pathetic! You're incredibly brave and human, it's a completely normal reaction to a trauma.
