[QUOTE="Dawnandkids, post: 2362367, member: 537319"] I’m in a major sulk/ depression about my daughter having diabetes. She was diagnosed in May last year when she was 3 - I’ve just been helping her with her mental health and trying so stay positive and supportive. I’m usually very good at not getting upset about the things I can’t control and focussing on the things I can. But actually what I thought I could control, I can’t, and this week it’s really starting to **** me off!! ive read all the books, I’ve ordered all the low carb alternatives, I’ve started making interesting packed lunches for school (so she’s not upset that she can’t eat the 110 carb lunch they provide the other kids there) - but despite all this effort her sugars are just an ever changing beast!! I just want to moan. I feel angry that I put it all this extra effort to keep my child healthy but actually overall she is less healthy than my friends child who basically eats crisps and sweets every day. It’s just so unfair for her. Ive had enough and I just want it to go away now. [/QUOTE]
