After diagnosis, many experience a feeling of "why me?" about their cancer. Sometimes it can manifest into a resentment either at a higher power or those around them. However, there is a way to manage it and ensure it does not fester into something more harmful.
Understand that it's common and understandable
It's important to know that many people go through the exact same anger and frustration that you are right now. There is no reason to feel guilty or apologize for this anger; it is simply important to find a way to manage it, both for you and those around you. Often, it helps many to reach out to others who have been diagnosed with cancer, and be open and honest with them about the anger you are experiencing. They will likely understand from experience, which helps in validating those feelings so they do not become explosive.
