and I'm over it. I really worked hard when I was first diagnosed, learned all about which foods my body could tolerate and which ones it didn't but yeah I'm just tired and frustrated now. I'm sick of not having the freedom, I'm sick of diabetes effecting my energy levels, I'm sick of the random times when you're sugar goes high or low despite it being something you've done a million time before. I'm so much more of an anxious person now, making sure everything is handled (not just my diabetes but it's spread to everything) and I get obsessive when I can't make sure something will be fine. I used to be much more relaxed and adventurous. I know diabetes shouldn't stop me and it doesn't for the most part but it's just not spontaneous anymore and I miss living my life that way. I'm bored of being so **** responsible haha
negative rant over.
There has been a lot of positive benefits to my life since diagnosis too! One could even argue that me being organised is one (minus the obsessive aspect) : P. I know so much more about nutrition now! I have a personal understanding of having an invisible aspect to yourself that affects your moods and energy rather than an intellectual one. I have a whole new community of people with shared experiences too <3.
What do your guys do when you are feeling over it? And when did you first feel it?
