the lonely man

[JohnBaker12021970]

i am an obese insulin resistant type 2 diabetic with depressive symptomotolgy and low self esteem. i find it very hard to manage my diabetes because of my ailing mental health. i have a corporate appointee from the council who looks after all my financial issues due to me being susceptible to financial and emotional abuse by 'friends' in the past. i am semi religious but do believe in god and his son jesus christ. i don't have any animals but i adore all animals. i watch gentle programmes and abhore violence and aggression. my mum and sister died but my dad's still alive and he's type 2 as well. i love going to the proms with a friend from my church. i also belong to a group on facebook called 'we love the 70's' because i was a kiddie of the 70's and it was my era. my name is john baker and i live on the mawbey btough council estate in vauxhall, south london. i was brought up in finchley in north london, however and my c of e church is in north finchley.
