This is my first time using tudiabetes, I'm really excited! So basically my biggest of many concerns with having type one diabetes as a teen, is do any of you get scared about your future, or prestent at times?
I know this sounds weird.. but when i watch tv, such as greys anatomy, (yes, im a huge fan, no, i don't base my life off of it! haha) There will be a scene of a teen with an illness and itll just remind me i have diabetes and so i get scared and think about all the actions im donig wrong to help my diabetes and therefore ill have moments where i decide yes im going to change today but then i realize i don't... it gets so hard at times... can any of you relate to what im saying/ feeling somehow?
well… i don’t get scared much because i’m very healthy. i’m on top of diabetes… and at this rate, i’ll have a completely normal future. but, i do often think of what could happen if i stopped trying.
Diabetes can be overwhelming and yes I worry a lot about my future and complications but all you can do is do your very best right now to have the healthiest future possible.xx
So far for the past 10 years I have had diabetes and 5 years of Lupus, I have been on top of my health…yet im in the same boat as you when i wonder what if i stop? But i do still get scared.
i can definately relate , especially when you are constantly reminded of it by family and other people.Now dont get me wrong showing their concern is appreciated; however i could use a day where being d isnt such a burden.
I get scared sometimes. I could be taking better care of myself but its hard when your in school full time and always on the go. Once I get a job and a normal life i hope to get back to exercising. I got diabetes from bronchitis and the flu I had them at the same time.
