It took me forever to edit this video! It was supposed to come out a few months ago so apologies for that. I haven't added subtitles but I will if someone would like me to add them. I just didn't want to delay uploading the video further. I hope you're all doing well!

Isenda Thinks Love your vids. You’re so articulate and open, honest. There’s nothing that can replace hearing another cancer patient’s experience and thereby feeling less “unique” or alone in the experience. I’m only just four months out and am realizing it seems the “aftermath” (as a Cancer friend describes it) feels worse (?) than the “active” or “acute” treatment somehow. Don’t wanna hear the “how are you” question. Tired I guess. So sensitive to chemicals etc now too. Ugh lol. Your cart analogy was relatable for sure. Keep the vids coming,, even slowly, because I feel better hearing your descriptions. Cheers.

Journals are great.
Looking back on my reflection from the past showed me how much I actually got done over the years I have spent recovering.
Making a list of things you have done instead if a to do list on your wall or something is helpfull

[@isendathinks7588]

I also make lists of things I've done. I find it helpful when I'm feeling low, sad and unmotivated. Thanks for commenting, Nethir.

I also got rid of some of the clothes I wore for chemo. I made sure that the only time I wore this particular shirt, I was in chemo. I was to the point of having an almost physical reaction when I saw, or even smelled the shirt. It just reminded me of everything the chemo did.

Do you can please speak what king the foods do you use for cancer recuperation, thanks very good video.

[@isendathinks7588]

3 healthy food recommendations I think everyone can get behind: eat more vegetables and fruits, cook most of your meals, and avoid processed foods as much as possible.

I didn't know that I was having brain fog until about 2 1/2 years into my recovery . I was feeling so angry , shame , guilt and so many emotion during the recovery period . It was the worst part of my life but it make me stronger. I still have anxiety and a bit of depression

[@isendathinks7588]

Thanks for sharing, Josh. I still struggle with brain fog some days and its such an emotionally difficult symptom to deal with.
