[QUOTE="Jelaca, post: 415748, member: 34819"] I'm 19, been diabetic for just under 10 years and I think what I have at the moment is diabetes burnout.. I just read about it on the website and apparently it's where a diabetic is neglecting what you know you have to do as a diabetic, this particular line is what made me think I'm going through it, "eating whatever you want despite knowing its effects on blood sugar levels, or estimating quantities of insulin required rather than testing blood sugar levels and injecting precise amounts" I seem to be at the end of my tether with diabetes, I hate to say this, but I feel a lot like I don't care what my BG is day to day, if it's above 10 then I see that as no big deal, and often I don't adjust for it unless I'm injecting anyway. I don't know if it's because I can't be bothered, that I've just had enough, or maybe something else. How can I get past this? I know it's important and It's just making me feel so down.. Thanks for listening [/QUOTE]
