COMEDIAN Janey Godley said she is 'so scared of her own future' in an emotional update on social media.
The star shared a snap of herself under a blanket with her dog, Honey and updated her followers on her chemotherapy treatment.
On Twitter, she said: "As is the way with chemo, mood just took a deep dip, went back to bed and had to try and keep “upcycling” my mental health to a place where it’s OK to feel shitty and accept that.
"Positive thinking is hard when you’re so scared of your own future"

Many were quick to respond to her with encouraging words.
One person wrote: "Sending you warm thoughts and hugs. I know it is not much, but it is all I have. I hope you find a way to feel more peaceful.
"Those nasty chemicals mess with thoughts, as well as making one feel like crap. I've been surrounded by cancer since 2018--my heart & love go out to you."
Another comment reads: "That final sentence is so true. I struggle thinking positively know I have a limited shelf life.
"Keep strong - you Will get there."
A third user said: "Having survived cancer my mantra to myself while receiving treatment was always never give up & don’t let cancer turn you into a victim.
"Hang on in there, you can do it. Keep fighting, Janey we all know you can do it."
