Option: I am sorry to hear about your cancer. It sounds like you might be considerably depressed. I would encourage you to be evaluated by a clinical psychologist or a psychiatrist. If you do have a major depressive episode, talking therapy and psychotropic medication may be more beneficial then the approach you are considering. Take care.
