[QUOTE="MarkHaZ123, post: 2320007, member: 512570"] Sounds like hell It sounds like you have a lot of issues around your diabetes and how much it controls your life. Iv only been diagnosed a year as type 1 so I know short term what it's like and how much it has changed me as a person and how I worry about certain things like exercise/work/nights out and how they will affect my bloods so as a diabetic we don't have an easy life at all. With regards the your levels I'd definitely speak to someone about it from the clinic. Try and make a weekly/daily chart and note down different times of the day when things change and at the end of a couple of weeks try and see if there are any patterns to some of the things that have happened. I did this with cbt for my anxiety years back I'm going through a hard time at the moment. Iv been ill since March with issues with my sinuses but this last month I was told I was anemic but the doctor wasn't just happy with that with all my symptoms so he's set me up an emergency appointment with the hospital to have a camara down my throat to find any issues as Iv got something wrong but could be anything Iv also like you suffered depression. I suffered once with depression and once with depression and anxiety. The second time was when I did cbt as I mentioned above and I worked out a pattern as to why I was bad. It always came back to my job and how much I hated it. I knew then I had to change my work and do something different so I became a bathroom fitter. I just turned to myself and said sod this. I am on this planet for one life and I'm going to enjoy it and not beat myself up about things so my partner and me go away alot more. I'm trying to get into property investment and various other things. As long as my bills are paid I now enjoy life. It has worked for me so far. I get the odd days when it's bad and not feeling well is really testing me but I still look to the future Always speak to someone when you can and always ask for help when you need it.
