[QUOTE="Auckland Canary, post: 998280, member: 70613"] Sometimes I think I was lucky, this could describe me in the mid nineties when I was in my twenties. Basically paying only cursory attention to my control and more interested in having fun. I knew about the consequences but they didn't really happen did they? I didn't know any other diabetics so it couldn't really happen? I also went through periods of self harm with deliberately withholding insulin during depressive episodes. I feel quite emotional writing this at the way that my T1 has affected my life but I am now in a much better place and try and deal with it well. I hope though I haven't got anything like this waiting for me in the future and if I do will it have been my fault? Very sobering indeed and my heart goes out to her. Thanks for posting the link [USER=74042]@ElyDave[/USER] [/QUOTE]
