Don't Feel a Thing

I had a bilateral Mastectomy on 9/27/13 and I don't seem to give a hoot. I shed a couple of tears on the way to the OR but since then - nothing. Now I suffer also from bi-polar and I KNOW I should be feeling something but I seem to have my moods turned off. This is not good but I don't know what to do about it. I don't want to go blathering around like I might but this stoicism isn't helping, I don't think. Any ideas? I can't even make myself care./


I'd drop something on my toe but don't think it would help.....

    Bikegirl- I was in denial for the longest time after my BMX. The more I let my emotions get into it, the more I knew it was true that I HAD BC and I HAD a BMX. I was 35 when I was diagnosed last year, this was not how I was supposed to spend my 35th birthday. I think as time goes on you will feel more emotions, plus if you are still on pain meds from surgery, that could be hindering some of your emotions as well. Best of wishes!
