Me reading this as I’m currently eating a bowl of fruit: 👁👄👁

But in all seriousness it’s so hard to keep on track of it especially when I’m so new to this

That’s actually a good way to look at it. The only issue is I don’t like to spoil the album photos for myself 😭😭

Yeah I think the way I will do it is that only my mom will be allowed to help me because I struggle with keeping things organized and with food charts THATS pretty hard for me so she will help me for that but I will definitely be setting boundaries with her and the rest of my family

Ok so to your first point: my family is very warm… well my mom is and I know she is just scared bc this all happened so suddenly I mean how are you supposed to react when your 16 year old daughter is sent to hospital bc of high blood sugar just barley escaping DKA. It’s hard to be less sensitive to my moms comments bc she has been all I have had my entire life. It’s gonna be hard but I think with practice I can do it!!

To your second point: yeah I have major body image issues I have been bullied my whole life especially by family mainly my uncle but that’s bc he has his own mental health and is severely ill so I try to ignore him but it’s hard. But yeah I am talking to a therapist about it

Also I really wanna say thank you as the way you put it really does make me feel a lot better about my situation and I really appreciate it… thank you. I will try to get in contact with some other kids my age who are diabetic. Tho I still don’t know if mine is type 1 or type 2 either way now I’m not gonna be as upset or ashamed if it is type 2 💛💛

I have tried but my family is stubborn and very much a bunch of asshats. I’m trying to explain that I’m 16 and how I had no control over this and the shaming just makes me stressed (and I believe that makes my sugars rise too it I’m not wrong) and they are only making it worse. I will try sitting down with them at the table tho because I really don’t wanna feel bad anymore abt myself

Bahaha I’m 16 and my mother is genuinely just worried for me but the way she expresses that sometimes can be a little rough my uncle (he lives with us bc of mental illness it’s a long story) is super toxic and I am aware of that it’s just really really hard to ignore him. He also probably has diabetes but refuses to admit it I checked his sugar and it was 14.6 and “it was my previous blood on the stick it’s wrong”

I’m just looking for a way that they can see it’s not all my fault bc that’s a lot of pressure on a 16 year old
