I do not have cancer myself, but I am on chemotherapy, so I spend a lot of time around cancer patients in the infusion center. A lot of them go to groups aimed at their age groups, but I do think that depends on the kind of person you are. I have a few extreme autoimmune diseases and I lasted a few months in a support group where I really didn't speak, but it helped just.... being in a room with people who understood how life changing it is. Even that gave my mind a bit of a break.
There are online communities too. If you're interested in blogging, I know tumblr has a huge cancer network and they are all so great to each other.
Please do take care <3 many hugs

Thank you for your kind words.
I've done a bit of extra research on some of the communities/centers that offer these types of services and there does appear to be a fair few groups within my age.
I'll try to make it to one perhaps tomorrow, then we'll see how it goes.
