Hi @kalapricetag, thank you for sharing what you've been going through. Coming to the end of cancer treatment can bring a range of emotions - relief, joy, pride, but also anxiety, stress, depression, self-consciousness, loneliness, etc. Let me tag some other members who can possibly share with you.
Hi everyone, for those of you who have finished treatment, how do you feel? Do you ever deal with stress, anxiety, or fear of recurrence? How do you manage this anxiety?

Take care,
Courtney

Hi @Courtney_J ,
When I click on anything in your post it says it’s expired. Am I navigating the page incorrectly? I’ve tried on my laptop and phone and it still says the same thing. Thank you for your input either way!

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.

Since I have finished treatments for Stage IIB cervical cancer, my anxiety has been through the roof. It’s rough going anywhere outside of my house. I’m trying to find some kind of coping skills to not stress and have so much anxiety about my cancer potentially returning. Any advice would be appreciated!
