[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2385737, member: 53162"] Perfectly said - so many insulin users experience mental health issues because of trying so hard and still not getting it right, it's setting realistic expectations at the word go that's vital. I never forget the nurse saying to me when I was diagnosed type 1 that I needed to stay within 5-9 mmol/l and the reality was only getting within this range 40% of the time and beating myself up mentally when I didn't, it was only when my next DSN set me more realistic targets and worked with me to fine tune things that I felt better about this, teaching resilience is vital with diabetes care.
