Would you like to tell us a bit more about yourself? What type of diabetes do you have, what medication or insulin are you on, what do you typically eat?
If we know a bit more, maybe we have some ideas on what could help.
Had type 1 for 43 years,I'm now 54..nothing I do is right..I just want to give up nowHow long have you been trying ? If you are new it is not easy and takes several months to get results or it has with me
please go and see your DN see what they say or if they can helpHad type 1 for 43 years,I'm now 54..nothing I do is right..I just want to give up now
Diabetes burn-out is very common, I second contacting your diabetes team to let them know things are not going well at the moment, and can they maybe help.Had type 1 for 43 years,I'm now 54..nothing I do is right..I just want to give up now
I fully understand your position. Social contact is vital. Is there a group or social activity you might join in your neighbourhood? I meet in a group every 2nd Saturday of the month. In June I had a chance conversation with a new member who said "This is the first time I have socialised for years!" You have already made a significant move by joining this Forum and sharing your feelings. I hope you succeed in climbing out of a very dark place. Keep posting! I wish you all the best.Had type 1 diabetes since age 11,now 54.Taking levemir at night and midday..novorapid as and when I eat...Taking stations for cholesterol gir years...On blood pressure tablets for 6months...Anti depressants since I was 27...I just give up..nothing more I can do...don't want to be here anymore ..live on my own...have no-one to talk to ..Friends distant when I need to talk...just had enough...
