Hi. This is my first time on the forum and was wondering if anyone else is or was as badly controlled as I am....im 37 years old and type 1 for 22 years now. My hba1c is 14 and has been around that on and off for the past 10 years at least. I dont take my insulin and eat what I want. I know how irresponsible this is and cant seem to stop despite complications setting in already. I cant seem to break the vicious cycle I am in. I used to be bulimic and didnt take my insulin as I kept going low from purging the food I ate. Although I dont purge anymore I avoided gaining weight by continuing to not take my insulin. Despite suffering complications with my eyesight, neuropathy and balance issues i continue this destructive pattern... I cant even climb a flight of stairs. I keep saying to myself that there's no point in starting to take my insulin as the damage is already done. Sorry for droning on...id appreciate any comments
