I am going to drink tommorow so i wanted some typs on how to possibly eliminate bs swings as i suffer from hypoglycemia.
i was reading that dry alcohol is good, but what is it, a whiskey,bacardi ? , to eat before some proper food( quarter low carbs, fiber, protein) during drinking some middle carbs (probably some snacks like diet mussli bar naturaly sweetened or couple dried appricots maybe) to avoid hypo but not too much carbs as it might rise bg much more, and after to avoid hypo during night.
I can tell if i am going to have hypo/hyper quite soon, luckily, when i start to have stomach cramps my bg is high, if i start feeling sleepy and agressive and irritated i am low.
if i have hypo at night i am depresed next day, its like being on antidepresants. and when i am hyper i drink some chinese tea or eat lemon and cramps goes away. but i really want to avoid hypo, i dont want to feel irritated, moody when i am out among people who dont know me(i wont tell anyone hey feel sorry for me and its not somebody's else business) and have a good time. i guess it takes some practise lol but that hypos are seriously f...g getting on my nerves, it feels like worst PMS ever...
when i am low (occasionally when i try out new food), i am frustrated, irritated i dont want to speak to noone and see the faces of people who normally dont speak to me or strangers and make a laugh at me just because i feel sick. they all irritate me with everything. the intelligent ones/those who knows me dont give me dirty looks and ignore me but the ones with peanut brain are ...gosh..i like they hate me, are angry at me, its bad feeling. now i manage it by eating a snack immediatly, wait a few mins and go outside.if somebody **** me of i am going away before it will affect my bg.
Recently i was thinking how i lost some years of life , because this caused me depression, weight gain so i stayed at home, my previous studyes affected, i was following my life goals and yet i was not happy. my last year of studies was waste of time, i am over 30 and cant afford to loose a years. as i think back..i was never happy in my life. always bad luck since bad childhood and i wonder when this missery is gonna stop, when i will live full happy life. sorry for not being optimistic but this ilness is not optimistic at all. i used to be realistic person and dreamer at same time, now i am just realist without dreams.its too much control over everything now.i know there are people who are in much worse situation(types 1 who life misserable and short life) but i was growing up with two diabs in my family so its not joke knowing whats awaiting you in some years time...in last few months i riged of smoking, bad carbs, all sugars, fat food,energy drinks,oatmeals and all mussli, eliminated coffeine,do exercise 4 times a week, eating every 2-3 hours instead of 3x a day, get proper sleep and regime, i am constantly occupied with the disease which makes me worried and exhausted.it really does take a lot freedom. i hope that i ll get used to it. and maybe i will feel even better than never in my life and healthier than others....this is really serious desease and people should be aware of its importance to keep yourself disciplinated.all the time.
