Hi all, first post here. I am in a difficult place, I was diagnosed with cancer 3 years ago, had surgery and treatment and everything is ok now.

I am struggling with the after effects of this now, depression, always tired, cannot sleep and general loss of interest in life.

My partner has stuck with me through it all, it must have been hard for her. Recently I have felt she is quite distant and pushes my advances away. I approached her about this and she says that she still loves me but I am not the person she fell in love with 5 years ago.

This has made me feel deflated, I don't want to lose her and will fight for her. She says it feels like we are just friends now.

My GP has put me on antidepressants and I have counselling but I do not feel like this works for me.

It is making me angry with the world and myself, but I don't know how long I can go on like this.

My head is so messed up now. My partner of 5 years tells me that I am not the person she fell in love with.

3 years ago I was diagnosed with cancer, I just started a new job me and my partner were saving for a house everything was great until this diagnosis.

She has stuck with me through it all, and although my treatment was successful I am no suffering from depression, poor libido, and a general loss of of interest in life.

I am currently taking antidepressants and having counselling, of which do not appear to help much.

I am afraid I will lose her. I thought life was getting better as now we have a house, cats, etc.. and I am looking forward to starting a family with her.

I feel rejected and do not think I can cope on my own.
