[QUOTE="Snapsy, post: 1604469, member: 265172"] Hi [USER=448057]@JamieT[/USER] , you've managed to express in very eloquent terms exactly how I have felt before, and sometimes still do. Shame and anger [I]in oneself[/I] seem to be experiences common to many who live life with diabetes day-to-day - heck, there sometimes just seems to be so much to beat oneself up about, certainly in my experience anyway - and I think many of us would do well to give ourselves a break! My good mate [USER=142835]@himtoo[/USER] has posted some very wise words and some super links, and I would echo those in spades. Oh, the 'normal' you mentioned - over time I've actually ended up 'resetting' what I even consider to be 'normal'. It's saved a LOT of guilt/worry/bother/apologies/excuses/justification. You're not normal. Nobody is. But as players of the diabetes game though, we are most definitely [I]superhuman. [/I] Love Snapsy :) [/QUOTE]
