Look familiar?
You want to go from survivor to THRIVER. You made it through the treatment and lived to talk about it and want to leave no stone unturned with your zest for living. You put a lot of pressure on yourself to do something monumental and huge but are lost in what that wonderful thing you are going to do looks like. Instead, you are frustrated and upset because you are not living up to your very high expectations.
Your fear is keeping you stuck. You are scared of your cancer returning and stressed out because of it. Cancer left you insecure about your body and every ache and pain could be cancer coming back. This fear can be paralyzing and leave you feeling like you are unable to move.
You are finished with treatment and can’t find or remember your old life. Things don’t fit like they used to and you’re having a hard time understanding all the changes that have happened to you. You feel like your lost in your own life.
Your are looking for meaning from this experience. You are feeling confused about this experience of going through a life threatening illness. Questions arise that you can’t answer like why did I get cancer? Why did I survive? What does my life mean? What does survivor mean to me?
You physically don’t look the same. You went into this experience in one piece and thought you would come out of it the same way, however, you might have scars, missing parts, tubes, weight changes. You are angry and frustrated with the physical changes of your body that you had no control over.
You are not sure what area to begin on the road to survivorship. You have a variety of projects you want to start but do not have a clue where to begin. You start one thing and start another and another and nothing is getting done except you are doing a lot of nothing. You are frustrated with lack of success.
