[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 893116, member: 53162"] You know what ever your feeling just write it down, talk about it, do whatever you can to get it off your chest, I have a theory about people and emotions that we are like pressure cookers, when something's boiling us up making us mad we need to talk about it, it doesn't do any good to keep it inside otherwise you will turn on yourself and this is where your own care and management can start to fail. I have only been diagnosed 3 years but have accepted it, I think my age helped as i knew there wasn't anything I could do about it so I just had to get on with it, i've had some tough times, but that's only to be accepted. My sanity has been saved by talking about it and also learning as much as I can about food, nutrition and eating low carb so I have better BG control, less insulin, less room for error and less erratic highs and lows which made me feel low. For each one of us it's finding what works for you and what helps get you through the day ;) [/QUOTE]
