[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 473167, member: 53162"] Big hug Jackie - I think most of us have pretty much most of us have been there at some point - there's only so much you can take and and you snap, it can be a really stressy thing to deal with when you're not feeling 100% and then when you test you're always running high. I felt the same last year and ended up following a low carb diet - I couldn't handle my BG going up and down all the time and wildly swinging from low to high, left me drained. I now do low carb and my moods are so much better, i'm much more level headed now, can deal with most things life throws at me, I haven't given up the red wine though as that's my treat but don't miss sugar, bread, pasta or potatoes and when I last saw my diabetes consultant he signed me off for a year so have gone from having half yearly visits to one a year. It takes a while getting used to it, but now I look at carbs and think it's just not worth it, my health means more to me than that and my happiness. If I can give you any hints/tips/support let me know but remember how you are feeling is temporary, it won't last for ever but when you're strong enough try and make some changes so you don't feel like this again, good luck hun ;) [/QUOTE]
