Hi I don't normally branch out for help because I've been told all my life I'm a burden but if I don't get help with my mental health and my type 1 diabetes I'm going to die horrifically. I'm only 28 and already I have a lot of nerve damage. I believe if my father didn't pass away when I was 13 this probably wouldn't be an issue now but that's not how it went. I put a gofundme page up but no one's giving anything to it which is soul destroying, ask for help on here but I keep on having social anxiety and I don't know how to get up replies or cos I'm so I'm bad at technology lol. If anyone knows of a way I can get help for anything I'd appreciate it or if you guys have a look at my YouTube video the title is a FUTURE WITHOUT NERVE DAMAGE. I really don't want to go blind or lose my legs I really thought I'd be dead by now if I'm honest. But I don't want to die anymore I want a life with the diabetes doesn't rule everything. I've put off having a family because I don't want my child to be paying the price for my mess up. But it's not fair I want children, I don't want to feel Baron when I'm not. I've been rejected all my life and I hope I don't get rejected here. The nhs doesn't care I keep trying and will keep trying but what else can I do. Thanks and merry Christmas.
Hi,
@Frannon18, and best wishes for a happy Christmas Eve.
You have already received great replies from
@HarrisonK and
@jjraak , and I can only add that you are not alone, in any aspect of your situation. One thing most of us have in common here is diabetes, but I imagine most of us are also dealing with other issues as well.
IMO you are fortunate to be in the age of the World Wide Web, where you can reach out, not only on a diabetes BB, but also, as
@HarrisonK said, to your MP and to other people at various agencies who can help you.
For much of my life so far there was no Internet, and no way to get in touch with other people who might have the same experiences, nor were there as many diagnoses for different conditions as there are now. (No, I'm not ancient!
But I was in my 40s before I got a diagnosis of the central condition that had been behind most of my difficulties).
I hope that you will get in touch with some of the people in your area who can give you helpful information. And some of the other forums here on this BB too.
