[QUOTE="bexblu, post: 1497444, member: 413996"] Yeah it can be overwhelming. I find it really hard to cope with diabetes, depression and anxiety, I find that they make a toxic mix.. It's like someone giving you a drink that's spiked, it just doesn't end well for me. But I admit, and I have to give myself credit for how far I have come, and I do forget what I have done. I am on medication for my depression, which has eased it, and had CBT for my anxiety which allowed me to get a job last year that I have thrived in since. I just find with my diabetes, I'm super hard on myself. With my depression I accept bad days and let them run their course, but with my diabetes I don't. I just see myself as a failure even though I know I am trying. I think I do need to be more self aware of when a negative thought comes in, and do my best to change that where I can. [/QUOTE]
