Roseann, I totally agree with Angi. First of all, any friends you have telling you to "suck it up" - avoid them! They are NOT being good friends right now. You're going through a very challenging emotional experience, as well as physical. You have every right to be sad. Validate your feelings; they're real. Examine them; realize they're feelings, and NOT PERMANENT. Then see if you can let them go, gradually... And definitely get some professional help. Ask the social workers at your hospital; they should be able to direct you to the help you need. Good luck - PJH
