[QUOTE="Maggie75, post: 2651276, member: 532798"] Hi everyone, I'm T2, no control over my diabetes at all in the last year or so due to severe mental health problems, had a full breakdown a few weeks ago, was truly suicidal, had rats behind the walls and in the loft of the house and it was beyond a living nightmare, I was terrified constantly, took weeks to get the problem under control, I was diagnosed with severe mental exhaustion, prescribed sedatives to take as well as the other 3 meds I need to take for my mental health and signed off work again. I just can't pick myself up from this, I'm having really bad stomach problems now with acid reflux, I'm on a waiting list for endoscopy for this, I feel like my stomach lining is in shreds, I've been drinking a lot of wine of the last while just because of how bad I feel constantly, had a major rosacea flare up as well, face burning, looked like a beetroot literally, been on antibiotics for this now for 3 weeks as apparently it's infected, I didn't even know rosacea could get infected! I honestly feel like my physical as well as mental health is so bad now that I'm just not going to be around very much longer, I'm sorry if that sounds overdramatic but it's just how I feel and I'm very frightened, why can't I find the strength to help myself, I know what I need to do eating and drinking wise but have no ability or reserves left to do this. It devastates me that I've gotten this bad, sorry if this sounds self-pitying, I just had to vent a little. Maggie [/QUOTE]
