Question:
Am i the only one who has this prob?!?
when i was in grade 1 or 2 my mum got breast cancer and now i'm scared of sickness and dying and vomiting and leaving my parents! is this normal when someone in your family was in risk of dying?! :*( TNX!
Answers:
Yes, I would say that it is. Especially since you were very young when your mother was in risk of dying, that could traumatize you for life. It is quite normal and afflicts many people in similar situations. It's not a big deal. You could have responded in much worse ways, like inflicting pain on yourself or an eating disorder. Therapy could help, if you want to try it. If you don't like therapy, try something that will calm you and organize your thoughts, like yoga.
Also, since you have a family history of breast cancer, it would be a good idea to get checked out every now and then when you get older to prevent it from happening to you and your young child.
