    Is it too late? I am losing hope (triggers)

    Thank you for giving me hope, the greatest gift of all. I, like many, am used to hearing a narrative that is ladled with scaremongering and shame and it is hard to get out of that void, but I must try at the very least. It is refreshing that you were able to do all those things despite things...

    Is it too late? I am losing hope (triggers)

    Thank you for these words. My mindset is the same as yours once was, that my future has to be perfect, but i guess that is irrational. I guess the 5 I can fess up to are - Listening to others - Empathising - Supporting others - Creative writing - Cooking and baking I was training to be a...

    diabulimia

    @SugarLips66 thank you for sharing, you are very brave and strong. I have one question, how long did you experience diabulimia, I have had it for 4 years now and am worried that it's ruined me forever, I worry that I may not be able to fix any of the creeping complications, or that I will suffer...

    Paediatric care to adult care?

    The help will always be available if you need it, it's just a different system, you have to 'book' to see the nurse etc. But seriously, don't worry about it. The transition is to the young people's clinic so they are sensitive to the needs of young people. Xx

    Paediatric care to adult care?

    Is it in the uk? Nhs? I had the same thing 2 years ago and I prefer the young adult clinic as it gives you full responsibility. However I think it depends on the person. I for example lose motivation to stay in control and there isn't anyone to keep me 'in check' unless I ask for it. So there...

    Can someone give me advice please?

    Don't worry about it! We all have anxieties about complications, it's completely normal, but the good news is that we can reverse and control a lot of these by taking care of our blood glucose levels. Try speaking to your family about it, these are perfectly normal worries to have so you won't...
