I've stumbled upon the above phrase PTSD something I didn't think applied to me but as it would happen it does, here's an article explaining why it affects cancer survivors and the symptoms the later of which I can say I have all of the symptoms and have had for along time. This was something I thought the counsellor would pick up on but as per usual I've done some digging around and found this. I would urge any cancer patient/survivor/fighter to read this article its answered some of my questions and helped me understand why I have been so depressed and suicidal.

I tick all the boxes with the symptoms for this particular disorder and will be bringing it up at my next session with the counsellor.

Katie Hopkins and her views on Breast Cancer Survivors...
Personal scathing attacks is not something I would ever of dreamed of doing on this blog or any other blog for that matter but the vile piece of shit that is Katie Hopkins deserves all she's going to get from this post.
Just watched Loose Women the guest was recent CBB runner-up Katie Hopkins the acid tongued viper Apprentice reject whose sole purpose in life is to rub everyone up the wrong way. How have we allowed this shallow bitch the platform in which to air her views. It's is beyond me....
Coleen Nolan pushed Hopkins on the point that when her sister Linda Nolan was in the CBB house she was constantly picked on by the vile Hopkins troll with tweets on how "Linda had a fat arm", or about her "breast hanging down to her knees" when pushed further about these comments in relation to the fact that Linda Nolan has a fat arm because she has Lymphedema and sagging breast all due to Breast Cancer and its treatments Hopkins would try to shout people down and suggest that she had too put up with horrible comments about her persona on a daily basis she still wouldn't answer why she had to pick up on the damming effects left behind by Breast Cancer she visibly squirmed when asked directly by Janet Street-Porter " do you think that telling a breast cancer patient she has droopy breast is a constructive criticism" she couldn't think quickly enough how she could get out of answering that question. I believe this has shown her for what she truly is she has no compassion or sympathies for those less fortunate than herself, no one was asking her to like Linda Nolan but to accept graciously that in this instance those terrible comments about Linda's arm and breast were wrong and that she should of apologised for making such uninformed and cruel statements. Hopkins didn't of course apologise she continued to exclaim how she has no regrets I think the ramifications of exposing herself on this programme will be far reaching and I hope she gets her just rewards for her callous remarks.
I found it strange that Hopkins was placed in the middle of the panel flanked either side by women who have been touched directly by breast cancer. Coleen Nolan has sisters either die or suffered by breast cancer and Gloria Hunniford's daughter Caron Keating died of the disease as a young women, even faced with this breast cancer sandwich she still continued to defend her corner rather than apologise. Hopkins thinks she is immune from disease or the effects of a life threatening illness like getting fat or having Lymphedema she is however just another fragile human being beware Katie Hopkins for this disease can strike the fittest, skinniest people on the planet you have been warned.
