[QUOTE="Belzedar, post: 539663, member: 36567"] That's what I used to do but since being diagnosed I am far more quick to anger. I had dinner last week with some colleagues from my research group. I've been unhappy about being unhappy and I've fallen into the trap of telling people I'm feeling irritable or moody because I'm a diabetic. When I did this - again - at dinner, one of them proceeded to lecture me on diabetes and how it wasn't causing my moodiness, just that I had a bad attitude to it. I said I was amazed to hear such rubbish from a post-doctoral neuropsychologist and asked her if she had skipped Neurochemistry 101 where she would have learnt that glucose was essential to the synthesis of neurotransmitters and that a disruption of it would have the knock-on effect I was experiencing. I haven't been able to speak to her since and I've added a filter on my e-mail to mark her e-mails as read and drop straight into the archive. [/QUOTE]
