[QUOTE="Nidge247, post: 1669752, member: 158871"] [USER=441787]@NoKindOfSusie[/USER] I think you need first to accept where you are then look to move positively forward. I accept you will be depressed in the first period as you adjust; this is something most diabetics will recall even if it was decades ago. (For some people this period is weeks, in others months or years.) Acceptance will help you past this point. Once you start to get a grip on this condition and move forward (little steps), life DOES get easier, but you have to work at it - there's no "off button" with diabetes. Remember; diabetes is just a condition, and YOU are in control, as it is YOU that make the choices in life. We may each have been dealt a bad card, but just read through the forums for advice, and you'll find there's more than one way to win the game of life. Everyone is different, and D affects different people in many different ways. However here you will find support, help and a sharing of knowledge - it is up to you if you accept what is on offer. Life is a gift not a given right. It is up to us all to cherish, appreciate, and make the most of each day. [/QUOTE]
