Sorry, the 'Yes' in the poll results is me.
I've been obsessed about control to the point of idiocy for 30 years, to the extent that my diabetes takes up more time, energy and thought than anything else.
I work. I have a husband and a happy marriage. I have friends. I
do stuff. I'm happy. I'm a good laugh, or so I'm told. But I'm afraid my diabetes
is a full-time job.
But that's fine, because that's the way it is. Over the last year, since getting a pump and a Libre, my attitude has softened rather, and I suddenly
do have a bit more mental energy to be doing other stuff, BUT my diabetes is still in the top priority position, and it's the thing I spend most time and most energy on. I would love to not be like this, to be honest. I guess it's rather ingrained after all these years!
I appreciate that everybody's very different, and I wish I could be more relaxed about it. But this is me, and that's okay.
Love Snapsy
