Hi
I’ve been diabetic nearly 18 years but my control has always been a bit poor. I was very rebellious in teen years and have never really got a handle on blood testing and diet management. I’ve had CBT and got a little better. My mum died from complications from diabetes and I’ve spent the five years since either terrified it will happen to me or resigned to it happening to me.
Does anyone have any ideas for what I can do to help myself here?
