That's a shame Craigybus, so sorry to hear it. My boyfriend had a nervous breakdown a while ago and like you he finds the distraction of a good hobby, or two, VERY helpful. I mentioned in another thread that I go to Church for comfort, but my boyfriend is NOT about to join me there. :wink: I...

Thanks Dottybagpuss! I'm really moved that you took the time to say this. *hug*

I'd laugh at you more Craigybus but to be honest my (toy)boyfriend is 32 and has loads of Games Workshop models (he used to work for them), plus his mate (34) collects Transformers. And a large group of us hold Role-Play evenings (dice games, not sex games) about twice a month. I'm a female...

My heart goes out to you Brian, I can't imagine what you're going through! I'm not a doctor but I reckon keeping your BG under a bit more control would make you feel better (comfort eating is fun but high BG makes me feel like c**p), your doctor should be interested in helping you with that (if...

Craigybus - I love the video and the model! Haha! You're really good at it but also a tiny bit mad... :crazy: :wink:

I don't care how seriously you take me... All *I* care about is where he got Hello Kitty slippers in an adult size! :wink:

I'm 54 and I collect Hello Kitty stuff! :lol: I don't buy everything with Hello Kitty on (there are too many) but quirky things, useful things and really pretty things end up being MINE. :D I've got a big pink Hello Kitty bag that I carry my stuff in when I do my radio show, a Hello Kitty...

My Mum's doctor put her on a patch that calms her bladder down - maybe you could ask about that?

If I had horrid PMs I'd block them with my MIND. Fear me!!!! :twisted:

Re: Study says Low-Carb best for fat loss and vascular healt Great news on the low carbing BF. I've lost weight by low fat diet before and was told by the specialist who took my gall bladder out that low fat diets CAUSE gall stones (because the gall bladder doesn't get stimulated, by enough...

Re: Study says Low-Carb best for fat loss and vascular healt Haha! You sound like me... I've only been married/divorced twice (now live with my long-term b/f) but when I refer to marriage I make myself sound like Elizabeth Taylor. :lol:

Further to Sid's idea, you can also search for "diabetic socks" on Amazon. They seem to have lots.

I think you should show an adult you trust this post, or something like it. Somebody has to know how ill you are becoming, so that they can support you. You're a really impressive person - you have great personal insight and you write well... But sometimes we just need help, and you DO need...

I wouldn't be at all surprised if stress contributed to mine. The last few years have been incredibly stressful and I've developed gastric problems as a result. I can FEEL my digestive system flooding with something (acid?) when the tiniest problem arises, or somebody else loses their temper...

Don't know if I'd have the jab or not. Last year my (asthmatic) b/f had one and he felt awful for a few days afterwards! Guess I'll be offered one, as I've now been diagnosed... But, as I said, I may not bother. :?

I live in Longsight and we like the diversity too! I go to an Anglican church but ours is twinned with a mosque and we even read a bit from the Koran at Christmas (about Mary). :D Some friends of friends are witches... Each to his or her own. :wink:

Diabetes AND exams... That's a lot to cope with. I really admire you for taking your health into your own hands and working at it, alongside all the school work! :clap: I'm sorry that support is so hard to find (yesterday my DN made me feel like I was wasting her time, just by having a routine...

My b/f is 22 years younger than me wiflib - I reckon that sort of gap would be a bit too "scandalous", if you're 27! :shock: :lol:

I was born and raised in the Medway Towns but went on to live in Burgess Hill (Sussex), due to husband number 1's job. Then he left me and I ended up married to husband number 2 - which meant I was still in Sussex, but living in sunny Brighton. After many years I got fed up with husband number...

I have this problem with my 16 y/o son! He has decided that my bread tastes better, my blueberries are "gorgeous", Greek yoghurt is his favourite, that sweet potatoes are better than ordinary ones and that my sunflower seed Ryvitas are his own special snack. Meanwhile the kitchen is full of...
