"It could be worse, could be better. I can't exercise because 1) gyms closed 2) recovering from hip replacement due to bone cancer so need to start back slowly 3) puppy isnt able to 'walk' on the lead yet so its a stop/start stroll if I do get out with him...(not blaming him, he is adorable). Experiencing all day/night hot flushes due to medically induced early menopause in order to treat my bone cancer with hormone therapy. Its duvet on/off all night, jumper on/off all day. Ggrrrrrrr.......gets worse if I am stressed also. Contemplating chopping my hair off as its making me hotter!! My mood can be horrendous due to treatment! I took myself off to our bed at 8pm last night. Everything was pissing me off: the noise, my kids, did anyone look at me sideways...????!!!! I have been buying stuff from Amazon to cheer myself up, buying presents for other people is good for the soul. I know this will all pass, hurry up though, I'm not a patient person MsD P.S. rant over. " I hope the treatment goes well and things turn out positively for you OP. What sort of exercise would you do at the gym? Anything you could replicate at home or something you could do instead? If the pup is too inconsistent could you go for a walk by yourself? | |||

" I hope the treatment goes well and things turn out positively for you OP. What sort of exercise would you do at the gym? Anything you could replicate at home or something you could do instead? If the pup is too inconsistent could you go for a walk by yourself?" I would do cardio & alot of weights in gym. I did get a bike in 1st lockdown & cycled alot but I am terrified of falling off it & doing my hip in. Prefer to do cross trainer & static bike in gym when they reopen. My ortho surgeon said I can go back no problem. I could go for a walk on my own but by the time we get dinner, chill for a bit, I am tired & its dark/miserable out. | |||

"Get yourself on YouTube and listen to some guided meditations. Search for ones to raise your vibration. Find a voice you like (I like Kenneth Soares) and listen to them in bed. " I really should try this when I am feeling super agitated. For no reason at all, I feel like I want to rip my chest open & scream Hormones!! | |||

"Sorry to hear all that and hope life takes an upswing for you soon - sounds like you have the right attitude about it though which is half the battle. The other half is trying not to worry about those things or feel bad about yourself for feeling them - "be kind" is thrown around a lot on here, and I'm usually fairly dismissive of the sincerity of it, but one area it is key is in being kind to yourself - that's where it really matters and is really important - take care of yourself and don't feel bad for putting yourself first for a change - it's not always easy to do and it *is* easy to feel bad for doing so, but ultimately you're the most deserving person of your kindness" It is so important to be kind to yourself. I am way too hard on myself in general. I am way too good at coping with everything. I tend to hold it all in then explode with sheer exhaustion a month later! Lol. Not a good way to cope. | |||

"Sorry to hear you are going through all this. When everything happens at once it truly overwhelms you. I'm hoping you are a bit more relaxed having talked about it. It helps to get stuff off your chest Cindi x " I am used to everything happening all at once: had breast cancer, lost my mam to cancer & found out about his long affair. All within 9mnths of each other...back in 2017/2018. I am a dab hand at coping! | |||
