Message: <blockquote data-quote="Alison54321" data-source="post: 1877937" data-attributes="member: 472744">I think you're being a bit hard on yourself. 24 is an age when there are a lot of other things to think about, it's the point where you seriously start entering adulthood, and have a lot of things to worry about, like career, where you're going to live, relationships, and just sort of who you want to be, so it's no wonder that managing your diabetes isn't top priority.Obviously you don't want to mess up completely with your diabetes management, but, maybe part of what is happening here is you are moving from the routine you followed in childhood, into how you want to manage your diabetes as an adult. Thinking in those terms might help you get back on track. Now you're 24 you can eat what you want when you want, and pretty much manage your diabetes to suit you, so adapting to what you want might be a way to get past the burn out.Don't be too critical of yourself, you really don't need to pull yourself together, because you aren't doing anything that requires that, you're doing just fine.</blockquote>
