I'm about to undergo my third chemotherapy session after two challenging cycles. The side effects have hit me hard, leading to feelings of depression, which is tough because I'm usually optimistic. I started this treatment with a fighting spirit, but now, staying positive seems increasingly difficult.

      I want to say how brave you are for going through these intense treatments. talk with someone, either with a counselor, your doctor, or loved ones. remember, it's okay not to feel positive all the time. You're human, and you're dealing with a lot.
