[QUOTE="Woollyfuller, post: 987877, member: 104926"] Thanks for the advice so far - I am still learning, this Diabetic thing is a lottery at best! I have been checking my levels a lot more since I have noticed the mood swings becoming more and more troublesome. I don't see an obvious pattern, I can be grumpy high or low, although more noticeably when low. I was on Lantus, but found that it was quite aggressive and they changed me to Levermir, which seems to be more manageable and I have less lows as a result. Thought about counselling, but I don't find the professionals that forthcoming with solutions - they tend to say adjust your insulins and that's about as much as I can get out of them - I sometimes feel I am just a hindrance and they are good at making out like you are an idiot moaning again - so I try and leave them alone. Its definitely one of those illnesses where I feel myself explaining everything all the time, because I look fine people assume I am fine till I pop - then I'm just a t@sser! Not great, but I suppose this is our lot. [/QUOTE]
