Hi. I went through anger after the shock of being diagnosed with cancer. I just couldn’t believe it. I have no family history of cancer and I wind up having cancer. I was scared and I was dealing with another illness that I was diagnosed the year before. My autoimmune disease completely changed my life. I wasn’t able to work. I had lost my balance, my hearing and my 20/20 vision. I was limited to staying in bed because I get easily fatigued and so much more. I did everything I could to get better in which I did improve but then I had cancer.
It’s so overwhelming. I went back to therapy but I went to the Cancer Wellness Center and I signed up with the support groups and other programs they have. It helped me deal with my anger constructively. I learned other coping skills along the way so now I’m better in handling my emotions.
I hope that you find a way to work with your anger. I’m glad that you’re giving therapy a chance. Take care.
