Hey there,
I'm really sorry to hear about what you're going through. Dealing with cancer and its aftermath can be incredibly challenging, and it's totally normal to experience anxiety and intrusive thoughts during this time.
I can relate to some of what you're feeling. When I was diagnosed with cancer, I also struggled with anxiety, especially during the post-treatment phase. It's like once the initial shock wears off, all the emotions start to catch up with you.
Finding support groups or activity groups for female cancer survivors in the Melbourne area can be really helpful. Being able to connect with others who have gone through similar experiences can provide a sense of understanding and camaraderie that's hard to find elsewhere.
I've personally found a lot of comfort in attending support groups, where I could share my feelings and experiences with others who truly understood. It might take some time to find the right group for you, but I encourage you to reach out to local hospitals, cancer centers, or community organizations for resources and recommendations.
Remember, you're not alone in this journey, and it's okay to seek support when you need it. Take care of yourself, and don't hesitate to reach out if you need someone to talk to.
