[QUOTE="joeynomates1969, post: 1975399, member: 139484"] Hi Patrick. I too have been through a lot, losing my parents when I was young, my brother committed suicide when I was 16 years old. I've also suffered abuse so I haven't had it easy. I think I am autistic...I also gave birth to 3 autistic kids so you can understand the magnitude of stress I have! I'm type 2 and I struggle to deal with this diabetes. I struggle with depression too, but have been told that my depression is caused by my high blood sugars and that I am in a vicious circle...which is very true. I long to get fit and healthy but I simply can't be ***** most of the time to put my best foot forward and start. I was given insulin t take to help get my bloods down, but I just put on the weight really quickly. I was swelling up too, but the nurse just said I was bluffing and that things like that don't happen! I still think but was a reaction to the insulin. Do I think I'd be better off not being here? Every **** day, but Its having my children that stop me from doing daft! But this isn't about me. I'm just letting you know that you're not alone and that there are a lot of people around who do understand. We just have to try and find the strength to fight it. X [/QUOTE]
