How did you feel mentally after auto #stemcelltransplant ?

I'm six months post auto stem cell for Hodgkin's Lymphoma. I fought hard to not do it, and I'm still having a lot of regrets about doing it. Anyone else in this boat? I was just getting out of isolation when #COVID19 hit and went right back in, which I know is having some impact too. But mentally I'm just struggling to keep up. #MentalHealth #Cancer #Hodgkinslymphoma #ChemoBrain #BoneMarrowTransplant
