Do Something!
Go outside and say hello to a neighbor, volunteer at a charity event. Take a walk through the park by yourself and enjoy the breeze. You get what I'm trying to say, go out there and BE ACTIVE! Depression is something that comes common with disease, but it also comes with other life struggles. Maybe death, or failure, fear etc. These are all natural and very common issues throughout life. Do you know that stress can cause your blood glucose levels to rise? I know this from experience. Just remember what you cannot change do not worry about it. What is meant to be will be...didn't Lauren hill say that?
Other things that can help you relax could be the more you focus on setting a strict and healthy diabetic diet, the e-a-s-i-e-r your life will be. When the doctor tells you not to drink, DON'T DRINK. If they say take your insulin, just take it! You are fully aware and capable of making your own decisions(besides young children) whether to take the right or wrong advice. It is NOT your fault, these things are just o-b-s-t-a-c-l-e-s and make us special.
Let's all share the
love & support
between one another going through this issue..........I know I sound like an expert, but the truth is I am not, and yes I am scared to death some times. But I hold my head high every single day, and we all will be alright.I wanted to share with you my beautiful day at the aquarium with my father. This is the first time this entire summer that I went out and did something eventful since I have been diagnosed. Like many of you who are down in the dumps with this disease, I am trying to conquer it and not let it conquer me. I actually am very afraid of fish, but my experience at the aquarium was a very delightful one! I hope my video and pictures of my dad and I can brighten anyone's day/evening....goodnight!

Hey, don't be too hard on yourself, I was diagnosed back in 2000, so I am still positive, I don't get down too much, you are doing a lot more than I did when diagnosed. I still live a good life and I try to keep my sugars under control.
