Does 21 count as "around your age"? Perhaps I'm being optimistic...

hi! im also 17, been diabetic for 7 years! wouldn't say im new to the forum but have just come back after nearly 5 years of not posting! i think it feels very isolating being this age with type 1, and it is rare you meet anyone the same age with diabetes, but I see there are some of us around!
