[QUOTE="Abi123, post: 1404328, member: 384169"] Hello, I am Abi, i'm 24 and was diagnosed type 1 in August 2016. I am really struggling if i'm honest.. I feel i am failing at being a diabetic (as stupid as that may sound) I am struggling to keep my BS levels in normal range, so (as bad as it sounds) i tend to not check my levels and ignore the fact i am diabetic, which i know is really stupid of me. Currently i have quite a lot of stress at home arguing with partner constantly and practically being a single mother to a two year old. Diabetes has been put on the back burner. Over the last couple of days i have been really trying to monitor my levels and act when they're out of normal range.. However i feel so much worse for doing so . They have been SO up and down, and its really getting to me and upsetting me. My partner thinks i am just being over dramatic and if its that bad i should just go to the doctor. I need some sort of motivation to stick to this... does it get easier.. I don't really know what i'm asking in this post.. i just felt it'd help to get it out.. maybe someone has had similar experiences. [/QUOTE]
