I have been diabetic (type 1) almost two years now and ever since being diagnosed my life has plummeted downwards and really only one good thing has happened to me since then that i can remember. Over the last week or more I have had this increasing feeling of sadness and loss of interest for anything I do. I have been using an incident that happened with my kids flooding the bathroom and saying that I'm repairing the ceiling so I don't have to go to work. The incident did happen I'm just using this as an excuse.
I recently started the new job over a month a go, this is the only good thing to happen to me since being diagnosed, I was out of a job for over year and these feelings I'm having now have been there a lot of times before that throughout the whole period of unemployment. I lay in bed last night and thought about seeing my kids, I cried myself to sleep for the first time in years, I keep telling myself I need to go to work but something inside is telling me no, its so hard to explain.
I have rejected a few friends invitations to go out with them over the weekend, even family members also, I feel so low and hopeless and feel confused about everything I do and think about.
I never told my employer that I have type 1 as before hand any job I applied for, I was being truthful saying I had diabetes and never getting an interview for any of them. I applied for countless jobs and finally I never told this employer and got the job.
I don't know what to do, diabetes has caused all sorts of problems with my life since being diagnosed and I think I'm still in shock that I am in fact a diabetic.
Anyone relate to me?
