[QUOTE="lovinglife, post: 166219, member: 22428"] I can see the pattern but for me it didn't happen like that - I was similar to Ken 1 Denial - I was in hospital very ill with something else and was diagnosed - wasn't surprised as in family and I have PCOS - and to be honest it was least of my worries so like Ken thought that's that then Skipped 2, 3 & 4 and went straight to 5 - knew what I had to do because of my dad and the way he controls his carbs and has done since diagnosis 20 odd year ago. stayed like this for about 16 months THEN hit 4 with an almighty whack - I have just gotten through a bout of depression - although I know its what has been happening in my life and not my diabetes that made me depressed, I acknowledge that as a diabetic you can be more susceptible to depression - I have been through loads of tough times but never got depressed before T2 - but this time I did - think I am out the other side now. But I never lost control of my db and I feel quietly proud of myself for that [/QUOTE]
