Im new on here, not sure how it works or if I'm posting in the right place?
I lost my hypo awareness 8 months ago and living a self imposed hell. I don't go out, lost my jobs, my driving licence. I've been to the doctors who's given me 'ptsd' tablets but I haven't started taking them yet, to scared they'll make me something I'm not . My question is........I don't eat, if I don't eat I don't need to take insulin and that lows my chance of going hypo. Absolute madness I know but that's what my head is telling me and I've listened for so long it feels normal to go a few days without so much as a cuppa and a biscuit. I looked up diabelima but I'm not that! Is there a name for what I'm doing to myself so I can talk to my doctor about it? Does anybody else do this?
