Hi Evelinda and welcome to the forum

I'm approaching my 33rd of year of living with type 1 diabetes, so that's two-thirds of my life taken-up with living with the condition. Certainly there's been some up's & down's but it never pays to dwell on the down's as it's important to keep a positive state of mind when you live with a condition like diabetes, just remember diabetes doesn't define who we are it is just a small part of our life.

Hey evelinda .

I am also a type 1 diabetic , and I have had diabetes for 15 years now . Got diagnosed when I was 7 and I'm now 22 .
It is very difficult to comes to term with being a diabetic . But never let it rule your life always remember that you rule your diabetes .
Once I learned to accept it , I find that now having diabetes does not bother me , I work with it all the time and not against it .
I always try to look at things in a positive way , even though it's hard to get past the negatives . But being a diabetic . Once you learn a lot about you own diabetes . And what control works for you ect , it isn't that bad .

Always here if you want to chat .
Take care .
