Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I disappear into the screen for hours and surface having completely forgotten what any of it is for
- Since the diagnosis I keep asking what’s even left to live for, and I can’t answer it
- It’s been days where nothing feels like it means anything, and I keep waiting to feel like myself again before I do anything
- I lie down at night and the whole day reads as one undifferentiated blur of busy, and I genuinely can’t point to a single moment in it that felt like it counted for anything.
- The people close to me can’t see how little I have left, so every time I need to beg off something I’m bracing for a whole exhausting explanation or the look that says I’m flaking
