Hello, I would love to find people around my age with type 1 to keep in contact with and chat
I'm 26 and live in West Yorkshire, i'v never had a diabetes buddy! and would love to meet some people who i can relate to and who can understand where i'm coming from when i talk about my diabetes lol.

Thanks for taking the time to read my post

Hi @emma_hughes3 . Welcome to the forum.
Diabetes can be a very lonely place.
East Midlands, old enough to be your dad but I am T1. Sorry doesn't really help you.
Hopefully you'll find a " buddy".
 
Thanks everyone for your replies yeah diabetes is quite a lonely path for me but thats the reason im here now
It's good to be surrounded by people that can understand where you're coming from! lol
