An article written by a Type 1 diabetic, equally applicable to Type 2's. Those of us with diabetes know that it affects every area of our lives, emotional, spiritual and mental health. Diabetes is daunting, complicated and confusing. There is no one size fits all explanation or treatment plan. http://www.diabeteshealth.com/read/2010 ... -healthy-/
Makes perfect sense what this person has written. I too have found living with my diabetes easier since joining a on-line diabetes community, asking questions, answering them, reading and learning and just generally sharing experiences is a great way to come to terms with this life-long condition. This is why forums like this are invaluable in that they offer advice and support to both the newly diagnosed and the long-timers, the world is a less lonely place when you can chat and discuss diabetes concerns, after all we are all in this together!
