I think many people have been through this at some time, it can be the severity of it, alot or just a fleeting glimpse and it's how to get through it and cope with it long term that really matter's. For a while now I have been finding it difficult, frustrating and just plain fed up at times with type 1. I think changes in my life have contributed to this, the loss of my dear dad in January, becoming 60 in February and my 30th year of type 1 next year. I always fight on with anything negative and try to see the positive side, but sometimes my get up and go.............. has upped and gone...............
