Hello @Kevvb1:)

I'm also 26 and I'm fairly new to the whole T1D thing, just over three years in.

I'm fairly active on the forum and happy to talk anything diabetes related and anything not. Just give me a shout openly or privately if you prefer.

Thanks for the tag @noblehead:)
 
I was diagnosed just before my 26th birthday. I'm just over 6 years in now, so a little older than you I'm afraid @Kevvb1 .

I would recommend

 
Just wanted to say hi and welcome you to the forum. I was diagnosed at 31............. but that was a while ago now lol
Take care
 
I was diagnosed at 27, but that was a long time ago! I'm sure there are quite a few who are around your age who are fairly newly diagnosed,

Someone came up with a theory that mid-to late 20's seem prone to T1D something to do with it being a stressful time of life and wearing yourself out more than most - you're leaving the fun care-free party life style of late teens/early 20's for serious relationships, leaving the nest, house buying, starting family, working all hours, partying all the rest!
 
Hey lovely
I was diagnosed 3 months ago at 26
Hope you're doing ok! It's a big shock..But im getting there and I hope you will too :)
My bigest learn is to it let diabetes stop ya for doing stuff you love xx
