[QUOTE="Samanthakate, post: 1626541, member: 401090"] Hey, I absolutely know how you feel, I have been type 1 since march this year and had just come out of dance school so already had issues with food, when I finally started having insulin again I put on about 2 stone in weight, I felt similar to you in that I felt scared of putting any weight back on and still sometimes do!! The most important thing you need to remember is your health, it's not worth risking any more severe health problems from not taking your insulin. Also I don't know how much it effects you but I remember the feeling of constant high blood sugar being terrible! As a type 1, insulin isn't an option, it's so essential and I promise that feeling will get better! If it doesn't then you may need to see a professional for help. I still get that feeling every now and then but It's no way near as bad as it was in march. Try and be kind to yourself! I had some counselling and it really helped me to get out all of my frustrations to someone who wasn't going to judge me. It helped me to work out where those feelings were coming from, this might be useful to you too? Stay strong; you're doing well in reaching out! [/QUOTE]
