Tell your friends, they can help support you, help you out of this place that you have got yourself into. It is too deep and too dark for anything to good to present itself to you. So tell them ok, you have nothing to be ashamed of. It chose you, you didn't choose it, so fight it, say no, I will not go quietly into that bright white light because I choose to FIGHT!
My advice to you is watch the movie "The Secret." Good luck. :)
There are medications, therapies and such that can control breast cancer. If you were just recently diagnosed, I would say you are feeling a bit overwhelmed and depressed. There is life after breast cancer. Call you doctor, call your firends, you need support right now more than ever.
Cancer is not the end of the line.

You need to have a positive attitude, gather your friends and loved ones, explain to them that you need them you aren't feeling all that strong and you need them to keep you up.

Good friends will help, be there, others will not.

You need to fight, you need to fight! I know depression, and I know how it can kill you inside, you must give it all you have.

You are worth fighting for, you are here asking strangers for help when you should be calling your best friends and saying "help me," to them.

Stop typing, and pick up the phone.
Babe how sure are you? Have you been to a doctor?
My aunt recovered nicley its all in the power of the mind.
Why are you depressed? you've got a lot to look forward to.
Many ladies go through this everyday but do they give up NO.
FIGHT IT you know you can do it.
You are strong! come on, make up your mind to do something, anything.
PLEASE PLEASE don't give up! There is hope. Many women have survived breast cancer. I know it seems like the end of the world but it does not have to be! Please contact your doctor to get counseling right away. If need be they can put you on anti-depressants while getting help. Call the American Cancer Society for support groups even. There is hope! I have added the website for ACS and for the survivors association.
Sorry about the bad news.
1) Double check with another hospital to confirm the cancer diagnosis.
2) If confirmed, ask the doctor how long you can live.
3) Make a "To Do List" to use the precious time in a wise way. From now on, don't waste a single day.
4) Three months from today, you will be happy. Very likely happier than me---a very healthy and successful person. You know what ? I don't have many meaningful things to do each day. I sell things to your country and every day is the same. Every day is boring. Try it, you will see what I am talking about.
Breast cancer is curable. It all depends on whether YOU want to be cured. Easy for me to say isn't it and VERY hard for you to do. But giving up is NOT the answer. Give up now sweetheart and the cancer has won. Half of the battle to beating cancer is having a positive outlook.
Don't be ashamed to tell anyone you have cancer there is nothing to be ashamed of. I work in a hospital and I see people everyday diagnosed with cancer and most of them get through it and so can you.
If you want to stay in touch and chat, email me, but don't be alone with this. You can make it, you really can and the world will be a better place for having you still around.

Why give up on life?

If you've been medically diagnosed as being terminally ill, now is the time to START LIVING!

If you haven't been told you're about to die, stop moping, stop feeling sorry for yourself, get on with the treatment, and get on with life.
There is nothing for you to be ashamed of. You need to continue on with your life as if nothing is wrong, and keep your friends close to you. They are your foundation, and they are the ones who are going to be there for you. My wife is a breast cancer survivor. She had it removed, reconstructed, and she is now cancer free. During all that time, she never skipped a beat, with exception to when she had to stay in bed to recover. This is not the end of the world for you. It's just beginning, and you need to talk to your friends, and family. They will support you, and you'll get through it.
See one need not be cowed down due to cancer and particularly breast cancer. At this scientific age of development lots of new medicines have cropped up and nowadays even persons who have breast cancer at stage 4 are surviving without any symptoms for 5 years or more and people up to stage II breast cancer are almost having a full life without any symptoms of cancer. See an oncologist immediately and get yourself treated afterall cancer is not a death sentence and you can lead a very peaceful life for many more years to come. All the best.
Please don't give up. I was diagnosed with breast cancer nearly 3 years ago. I was so scared I just wanted to run as fast and as far as I could. I cried, felt alone and betrayed by my own body. I eventually learnt as much as I could about breast cancer on the internet - I felt a bit of control coming back - I made decisions about my treatment - had a lumpectomy & radiation therapy which was advised by my doctor. I was very dependent on my treatment team but they were great.
There is a lot of support out there - you just have to let down your guard a little and let others help you. You are not alone! You did not cause your cancer. You deserve the best of care. Your friends deserve your trust - let them support you if they want to. Please don't give up, that will only postpone your recovery. Good luck on your cancer journey - you are not alone
Seeing that you said it's hard to "go on with life knowing" you have breast cancer, I take it that that means you CAN have a life to go on with and that your cancer is not terminal.
If it is shameful to have cancer in your circle of friends, then this is the time to develop new friends who understand that cancer is nothing to be ashamed of and who will support you during your care. Besides cancer society websites there are also online groups that can help you know you are not alone.
Life is hard and life is terminal -- for every one of us -- don't let it be so prematurely.
You are feeling depressed and alone and it sounds like you are shutting everyone out of your life that could help you and offer you support at this time. There are many treatments for breast cancer now that it does not mean you will die. lease don't be ashamed! There are many women and indeed some men with this disease...you are not alone.
You sound depressed which is understandable but you really need your family now as they can support you and offer you comfort when you need it. Consider going back to your doctor and tell him or her how difficult you are finding this. Maybe your cancer has not been fully explained? There is no set way to cope with this and you need feel no shame.It is natural to be upset, angry and be frightened. Your GP may be able to reassure you and put you in touch with support group or a Macmillan nurse?
Consider contacting cancer research UK as they will be able to offer information and support too. You may need some counselling to come to terms with your cancer.
Remember positive thinking and getting lots of support plays a key role in fighting this disease. I am truly thinking of you.
i would try not to think about it and watch ur favourite film instead. Having Cancer is harmful in a way, and believe that u can fight to the end!
PS: U can win!! gd luck

You should not be ashamed, you did nothing to deserve cancer. If you need someone to talk to or information about treatments call the American Cancer Society 1-800-ACS-2345 or visit www.cancer.org. They have programs that provide help and support for people who have cancer. Breast cancer is very treatable. They will even put you in contact with other survivors. It really is a great program.

Novelos' pipeline of drugs is based on oxidized glutathione, a natural metabolite that is part of the glutathione pathway. This pathway is the primary determinant of intracellular redox (oxidation/reduction) potential and, as such, plays a key role in cell protection (e.g. detoxification) and in regulation of cell signaling pathways (e.g. leading to cytokine production). Novelos’ lead products are believed to act, in part, via post-translational modification (glutathionylation) of critical regulatory proteins that mediate processes including immune function, cell proliferation and tumor progression (in combination with chemotherapy). They may also sensitize tumor cells to certain chemotherapeutic drugs by modifying drug detoxification processes.
I know how you feel its such a shock to be told you have cancer,i was diagnosed with a brain tumour last summer i thought i was doomed but i have had a successfull operation and my last scan showed i was free of the cancer for now,i know one day it will come back but one thing we can all be sure off is the fact we will all die but i choose to enjoy every moment of my life while i can i could get hit by a bus tommorow

i hope u don't feel bad about this email
Hi. Please don't feel bad about what is happening to you, or the way that you feel about it. I am a person diagnosed with breast cancer 7 years ago. I had the surgery, the reconstruction, and such.
The cancer never ever leaves you. OK so the docs did their part. They cut away alll the physical stuff, and repaired the "damage" done physically. The mental damage is another issue. It is something you either have to learn to ignore or you have to learn to live with so that you don't go crazy.
Every time that you find a new something wrong you think" Is it back?" if you have not chosen to ignore it.
What you really need to remember is that cancer does not respect creed, race or gender. It is not discriminatory. It does not pick you out for any reason. It just chooses you.
Can I recommend a book that my GP recommended to me? Love, Medicine and Miracles by Bernie Seigel. It will give you coping strategies. If you live in the UK for goodness sake turn to the breast care nurse for some help. In my area, they can help with financial issues, therapies of all kinds (massage etc), counselling. If you feel you need help, SHOUT for it.
If you have friends, ask for their help. Those that refuse are not your friends.
Good luck with it all, one step at a time. Love and healing thoughts.
dont give up. i have to 2 people i know that had breast cancer and are doing great 10 years later.
u can email me if u want. im 28 and was diagnosed last year with BC. I just had a bilateral mastectomy.

it helps to talk, it really does.
