[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2443792, member: 372207"] Ah, that must be a big adjustment for you! Take your time, being bewildered is very natural. ;) Personally, I just inject wherever and whenever. To my thinking, all those other people are having insulin put in their system by their pancreases in public, so why shouldn't I put my insulin in my system in public? It needs less than a square inch of skin, so that's not an issue either. But that's the practical side of it. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you'll need to find the best way to deal with this for you! For some, this means finding a private spot but most of us, I think, get used to just injecting in public with a bit of practice. It sure makes having T1 less of a burden if you don't feel the need to find private spots all the time. Would it be an idea to tell a friend and go out for something nice to eat to practice with their support? [/QUOTE]
