Stress will lead to highs and it's easy to over-correct. Exercise is an excellent way to normalise stress hormones if you can encourage him to do something active.It can be a vicious cycle - as a partner of somebody with T1D myself, I have first hand experience of how fluctuating blood glucose levels can impact on somebody's mental health. Erratic blood glucose levels make you feel rubbish, and at the time when you need to be at your most proactive about keeping yourself healthy (diet, exercise, sleep, blood glucose monitoring etc) you feel least motivated to do it.Hang on in there and I hope things settle for your partner soon.</blockquote>
