[QUOTE="Trina_P, post: 941343, member: 122316"] Ok, now stop it. Just stop it. Everything that has happened in the past needs to be left there and you need to start looking at the future and start setting goals. Even if your goal is just to take your background insulin as required and test 4 times a day fo begin with. Get into a routine and make yourself do it. You might not like it, but it's tough bloody luck. It's so unfair being diagnosed with it, I felt like my body had betrayed me. But you know what? It's treatable, and it is never too late! Once you start to get a control on your glucose levels, you with feel physically better, but mentally too, as well as the positive impact of feeling like you're in control of the diabetes instead of it controlling you. I know if you're depressed that it alters your perception, I've been there too, but try to find the positive in every day, even if it's as simple as someone holding a door open for you. What you really need if to speak to your DSN, get on a DAFNE course, and get some perspective. Life really could be so much worse. Please feel free to contact me at any time, I'm more than happy to offer any advice I can or just be a shoulder to cry on. If you're in the Manchester area too I'm more than happy to meet up.
