Hi guys.
I posted earlier in the week about having a bad time with diabetes. Essentially throwing my toys out of the pram (ooops!!). I had a good long chat with my counsellor and he has suggested i may not have actually accepted the diagnosis and im stressing myself out trying to do things that i need to take more thought to do (exercise for example). My question to you all is this-
How do you know youve accepted it and how long did it take?
Ive been diagnosed 6 years and felt i was doing ok but in hindsight i have maybe just been plodding along and trying to ignore the condition!
