[QUOTE="Rusne, post: 1810817, member: 458600"] I was diagnosed with T1 and finding this forum was a massive help. I did not think actually that it is T2 mostly. I just really appreciate help and support and the fact that members are so active. I would always get a reply. So I dont think isolating T1 is necessary nor that it would improve anything. This place is here for support and exchange and maybe thats more important than giving advice. Learning about T1 is a journey and you cant put it all to 1 info sheet. I think the recomended list of books to read would be good for new T1s. If I could go back to the day of diagnosis this is what I would recommend to myself: Take it slow and do not push or blame yourself. You will have a lot of time to learn and master diabetes care Have a support circle. Meet other T1s and ask them questions. They will be very happy to share and the information they provide is very useful. Talk about what bothers you and how you feel. You will discover that youre not alone in this. Learn about your condition as much as possible to be able to discus with the medical professionals and ask for the things you need. [/QUOTE]
