[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1992359, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=468630]@emily deacon[/USER] I think you'll find that any type 1 has their fair share of worries and anxieties in whatever form that may take, what makes us become more accepting is our resilience and knowing that if the carb/insulin calculation is wrong then to simply accept it and move one, don't let the blips rule your day, just acknowledge them. Sometimes life + t1 can be over whelming, there's a variety of other things to consider too, which for me as a woman is the added bonus of hormones too which impact my control, then temperature, stress, exercise etc etc. I don't envy other people because I know everyone is different and have their own fair share of worries, I do however still have the odd pang for my former t1 life, but am 7 years down the road now and am sure there will come a day when I can't remember ever not having it. I still think I have come a long way since diagnosis however that said I still get the 'uncontrollable events' where I went high/low without any idea why, and still even with that I just accept and move on. I agree whole heartedly with [USER=468714]@kitedoc[/USER] It helps to have a hobby or past time you feel passionate about though to take your mind off things, the respite I get from the constant vigilance of managing my t1 comes from exercise and this gives me freedom from thinking about t1, so anything that takes you away will help :) [/QUOTE]
