Message: <blockquote data-quote="donnellysdogs" data-source="post: 371947" data-attributes="member: 17713">Not particularly. All family, friends and my customers etc treat me the same, no different. How do you mean feel alone? Everybody knows I'm diabetic, but at the moment the only persons I think that ever made comments about'you cant have that to eat can you?' was my parents.Every person I have ever met seems to know another diabetic!! Went to hosp physio last week and there was an elderly coue there... She aas making comment to her hubby that she thought lift lemon tea had to much sugar in. I asked if she was diabetic... Yes.. Looked up myfitness pal on phone told her the sugar value in her lift lemon tea and progessed on to all about their life's.At home, when quiet I log on to forum. Have made many superb friends from forum.I never feel alone or isolated because of or due to my diabetes... I am pretty out going though, and talk to everybody and anybody about anything. I do have the habit of talking on some pretty divers subjects to male s for some reason, I've always been able to enjoy male company more. If my close friends ask me about my diabetes I tell them, but if not I dont. Even if I do tell them, I try to keep  it briefas listening to someone elses illness to me is like looking at other peoples photos.... Ok to see/hear once... But then put photos away please!!!!- or for me shut up quickly.</blockquote>
