Hi All,
I'm a diabetic type 1. I have had it since I was 13 but I'm really not coming to terms with it. I have tried on a number of attempts to try and come to terms with it and control it well..... it does not seem to work.
Ever since I was diagnosed with it, All I have had people do is remind me if the side affects and say your gonna lose your eyes, legs and die etc and this being said by HCP too. This has not helped me one bit trying to control it, in fact it makes it worse.
The amount of suicidal attempts is off the list. My family don't like me reading forums like this because it's making me look into all the bad things about diabetes... even though they have all been repeating the side effect ever since I was diagnosed.
I cannot control it anymore and need to do something. Pay for a transplant or something. The hospital have said I can have a pump but I have to do 4 bloods a day which to me seems impossible.
I'm 21 years of age and people keep saying diabetes will get better..... but it doesn't. The more and more I have to deal with it, the more I get furious I get.
My family are willing to pay for anything to help. Transplant, Pump.
I have a lot of time off from college due to being ill. I had a gap year from college and got a job and had a lot of time off from the job due to being ill. I'm guessing I'm never going to be able to keep a job with the amount of time off I have off.
Diabetes infuriates me so much, I want to live a normal life without being ill all the time and taking **** injections.
