I have suffered with this for many years off and on. I'm currently fighting this at the moment and I don't feel like this condition has enough support as it's not recognised enough. I'm t1 on insulin and metformin as I'm now insulin resistant
Hi, I know of one youngish diabetic who manipulates her insulin & she works in a doctor's surgery. She lives in Scotland but it is the 2 practice nurses who have tried to help her over the years. So sad & certainly needs addressed by professionals. Best of luck.Hi guys just got off the phone to diabetes UK and currently there is no help avaliable apart from a small independent team in Scotland and the fact is that have received numerous complaints that enough is not being done but due to lack off funding ect there is no plans to I am awaiting contact from policy holder qt diabetes UK who hopefully can tell me more
I’ve suffered with negative body image for as long as I can remember. At the beginning of October I was rushed into hospital with DKA. I was in intensive care for a week.
It was only when I came out of hospital that I heard about Diabulimia. Hearing about it I realised I had been suffering with diabulimia for years. I wish I had known sooner, I might not of felt so alone, sometimes I feel like I’m going crazy!
My friends ask me why I’m doing it, why I deliberately miss injections and make myself ill. The thing is, I do t know, it’s like asking someone why they have bipolar. People forget that diabulimia is a mental condition as well and I can’t just “get over it”
