It's coming up to 10 years of being a T1 diabetic and I'm still not coping with the fact I have the disease. People try talking to me about the damages that it can cause if not controlled properly but that still doesn't seem to change my mindset. My personal life isn't the easiest right now. I am having issues with family things which are very hard to handle and deal with. I have no friends that I am able to talk to who are going to understand as they all bullied me through high school and would think that they knew it all but didn't actually know anything. I've been hospitalised twice in 2013 and even that hasn't seemed to change my attitude towards the way I look after myself. For years in my teens I wouldn't take my insulin properly and would sometimes miss dosages. I'm getting worried now that I'm causing myself harm to my body and that I am causing serious damage that I could be unaware of. If anyone can shed light on this or give me some advice or tips to help me cope I would really appreciate it as I think my body is only going to take so much. Aimee</blockquote>
