Thank you everyone for your comments, they are all greatly appreciated. A recurring theme seems to be that you want more background information. Well, I grew up in care and have next to no family, which makes times like Christmas very difficult. I was also bullied for many years for being the “gay one” in the school I was in, even though I’m only bisexual. I used to do drugs regularly and binge on sugar for fun, but stopped those things about a year ago. I’ve lived in 14 different care homes and foster placements all over the country, so I don’t have many friends I can turn to for something so personal, mostly because I know they won’t understand. That’s enough about me. You will be pleased to hear that I’ve managed to regain some kind of control over my insulin, although it’s still very rough. I’ve managed to do my background insulin once a day for the past week, and I’m feeling more confident within myself, despite still being very emotionally unstable, due to my depression and PTSD.
Thank you everyone for engaging and giving me hard, but realistic comments. Updates to follow xx
