[QUOTE="RJS91, post: 1666543, member: 467435"] I can certainly vouch for the effect of depression on T1. Of course the anxiety attacks and Asperger's doesn't help, but certainly the (very medicated) depression makes it seem less than worth it. When my blood sugar is high, my head either runs through every possible reason for it, or I just stop caring, jab myself some extra insulin and hope it sorts it. To constantly monitor the situation only to see it fall apart on a whim is nothing short of disheartening. At this moment in time, I have no significant other or any descendants (and I don't see that changing), my T1 skipped two generations and landed squarely on me and no-one else. I constantly ask myself why. It would take a tyrant's cruelty to wish it on any one person, yet... here we are. There is one thing I can take from this. I stand as a direct violation of humanity. That makes me chuckle, if only for a moment. [/QUOTE]
