[QUOTE="sepuku, post: 941119, member: 128933"] I'm 34, been T1 since I was 2 years old. I went through this in my teenage years, and still never really looked after myself properly up until I met my wife 7 years ago... She made me want to stay around longer... Like others have said, a diabetybuddy is what you need to start off with. Someone who just "gets it". I know this would have been incredibly good for me... But find someone who has had it for years, and can help you analyse the data that you will start collecting... There is so much information to collect, take in and understand, but trust me - it's doable ;-) I've learnt almost everything from scratch within the last 3 years... Once you understand it, then it becomes much less of a chore. By all means PM me if you need help, or just to vent. Sometimes just venting and screaming about it is helpful :) Take care of yourself... [/QUOTE]
