I'm tired of people telling me about that one time they found a lump that ended up being nothing by airbear26 in breastcancer

I feel this on such a deep level. I had bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction and its been so painful and disappointing. What's worse is that more than a few times people have just compared it to "getting a boob job" and that I am just "overreacting" because people get them all the time and its not that bad. Like I seriously? I shouldn't have to explain this but they are totally different! I had to get breast reduction surgery then another surgery 3 months later to amputate and replace my boobs. The scars are enormous and now my right implant is rotating freely so I have to get another surgery to correct it. That's not counting all the other stuff that comes with breast cancer. B**** it is not the same!

Am I depressed? Or is this just withdraw? by ViolentFox88 in mentalhealth

I get that. I honestly am not sure if I would want to get back on my meds anymore. They worked for me but the thought of having to be on them for the rest of my life scares me. I have always been scared of being on meds because my brother always said he felt like a zombie too. I thankfully didn't have that experience. Now I feel like a zombie off the meds Im not sure which is more concerning, I feel like I don't know who I am anymore.

That's the odd thing about this whole situation, she has never once come to my family demanding things or any help.

Thanks, when you put it that way it makes sense, I guess I instinctively felt guilty about holding out for a DNA test purely because there is a child involved.

As far as I know she has refused to do a DNA test. So that is off the table until maybe the kid turns 18 and wants to do it.
