[QUOTE="Country Girl, post: 1036630, member: 211278"] When I was in college I was terrified to shoot up in public because all the people in the cafeteria would stare at me and have comments to say to me like why is she doing that here? or do she have to do that here where people are eating, I was even ashamed to check my sugar in public I used to go into a bathroom stall and do It where nobody woull see me. My friends used to stand up for me but I had to deal with it myself I so I had a public word with all the students in the college in the cafeteria was terrified because I hate to make speeches but I was happy I did because it made the college more away of my condition there is no need to be ashamed of injecting your insulin in public some people have to used inhalers there is no shame. My college was happy because from then on they became more informed on diabetes and had leaflets to offer info for all the students incase I was to take a hypo which I did on a couple of times and they knew how to react not stare or comment, The people in your workplace should want to know more because if you were to have a hypo and had no glucose on hand they could help,there are info packs out there for problems such as these [/QUOTE]
