[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1994886, member: 345386"] [USER=497882]@Caeseji[/USER] - I think everyone has a bit of a rollercoaster from time to time, even a goodly time into the journey we might have a real, "Meh!" day with the whole thing. Have you heard of the Kubler-Ross change curve? It's well worth a look. The purist ones talk about grief, but grief isn't necessarily about someone passing away, it can be for the way things were, the way things were done, or almost anything, but the headings surely do often apply to how we feel. We can enter and leave the change curve at any stage, any time, and to have "been there" once, doesn't mean to say you won't revisit those feelings, but the thing is they do usually pass. The following image is just an example, but as you might expect, t'internet has many, many examples. Try to concentrate on the positives, because those are the thing that pull us forward, rather then the negatives which could be blamed for pulling us back. You've done very well in your orogress so far. Spend a few minutes thinking about how much better today's markers are than when you were very initially diagnosed. [ATTACH=full]31481[/ATTACH] In the 5 years I have been diagnosed T2, there have been massive developments and the tide is turning from the total gloom and doom messages of dreadful, progressive outcomes to more hopeful progress and many examples that progression can also be in a very positive direction. You have many examples of that positive direction right here in this forum. The thing about sustained change is is has to come from within you. Nobody can change for you, but the fact that you are sorting out your life, have found a job and are improving your health shows you have it in you. Go for it. [/QUOTE]
