Message: <blockquote data-quote="VashtiB" data-source="post: 2571506" data-attributes="member: 511345">I agree that there is snobbery around and it makes me sad. It also still brings me feelings of shame as a type 2- still a residual feeling that I caused this to myself and so am less worthy. I very rarely tell people I'm a diabetic. I know logically that given I had 2 parents with type 2 diabetes that I definitely have the predisposition and I am not to blame for that but the feelings are not always logical. It is one of many reasons I am so passionate about this place. Here I am not judged and I try not to judge others. We are all doing the best we can and no one way suits all of us. I want to support all diabetics (and their friends and families). It really makes me sad that we as a world look for reasons to feel superior to others. It also makes no sense to me.I am sorry that you have had this experience and I hope you get your sandwich and that it is delicious!</blockquote>
