[QUOTE="Unbeliever, post: 269002, member: 30851"] Yes of course, Phoenix, just because I don't think it doesn't work for me doesn't mean that some of it is not good advice. We ARE all different and people go through diffeerent phases. It might be of assistance to the newly diagnosed trying to come to terms wih i as some do very successfully. No many of us don't show our feeligs openly . I can empathise with Helena babe who feels just the same now as she did in the begining and I think this is different to the feelings of the newly diagnosed. I suppose it is down to which aspects of having the condition you find most unacceptable. This is where the assumptions kick in . Just as, when my Nurse wanted to put me on insulin she could not accept that the injections were the least of my worries. I really believe that it should be just as acceptable to talk about the depression that accompanies this condition as the physical symptome. Never mind siff upper lip and not wallowing it or frightening newbies. Perhaps if people felt able to talk about the emotional side of things more openly then Helenababe might not have felt that she was alone and "different". [/QUOTE]
