I have been diagnosed with a brain tumour recently and my symptoms are getting worse I waiting for an appointment 10th April to find out if I'm having chemo or surgery. I also suffer chronic pain all through my upper body since last year after a bad experience with gallbladder removal I suffer from epilepsy and had a grand meal. Seizure under the anesthetic. My depression is sky high at the moment and panic attacks are getting me down I'm 28 and going to bed every night emotional and worried incase my head just bangs my husband works nights so that doesn't help really. I'm so scared of dieing I'm terrifed I feel I have nobody to talk to, I know I can talk to my husband but I don't want him worrying. I'm a wreck at the moment 😢

Hello. It helps to talk so it's good you're reaching out. You are dealing with a lot right now but first and foremost you need to seek help for the depression. There are many things to make you feel better and many people to talk to. You are young and can fight through this. Take care.

Thank you I have been to my doctors and they are putting me on strong antidepressants, I also going to see if I can get some professional help as I have a bad past I can't seem to get over 2 and half years ago I got out of a bad relationship my ex used to beat me and mentally abuse me which I haven't really dealt with I don't really talk about it I bottle it up. I recently got married in September and he is amazing and treats me like a queen but I find it hard to open up. Xxx

Yeah my husband is wonderful I have spoken to him about the past he knows my ex anyway I already feel better writing on here to be Honest. Iv started to do box frame gifts and occasional hampers to take my mind off things and because I'm unable to work at the moment it helps and I can take my time doing it x

Go to your GP an tell him/her how you are feeling , you need some form of therapy to be able to express your thoughts , feelings - talk through how you are feeling , get it out so you don't have it going through your mind all the time , if you are not able to attend therapy then write a journal on how you are feeling , draw pictures , etc - in anyway you can express yourself , i can understand you don't want to burden your husband but you need to talk to him as well , are there any charities that can support you through this terrible time , if you take antidepressants then maybe your GP can tweak them or offer a anxiety tablet , maybe some form of medication to ease you into a gentle sleep , please take care an write on here as much as you need as i am sure there is someone who can suggest better ideas then i have , xxx
