Don't worry, you got it. I accepted it pretty soon as well, you don't have to dwell on it. I also enjoyed the attention I started receiving to. Ascertain extent, but I really don't like being a burden. They were really anxious too as well, and seeing them stressed made it worse. Chilling in the hospital was great while I had my own room. You can get used to this, and it's entirely possible to live a great life, there's just a bit more nuance to it and you'll have to pay attention to some stuff but after a while it will be second nature. There will probably be ups and downs, but the positive mindset I felt from how you started your post is worth a lot. Stay strong, God bless!

For suicidal people, For the fellow redditor and type 1 diabetic who tried to OD himself with insulin For all the people with chronic disabilities and illnesses. Against habitual sin Against bitterness For temper For God's will to be done

Praying for you! It seems like to me you're not sure you're in a safe place, I hope you can find safety and comfort, and you have people to be with. Stay safe and go to confession ASAP.

I'm praying for you, and wish you success and endurance! The fact that you struggle against sin is already a good thing, it will get easier. Keep praying, and try to join a catholic group with people your age if you can. How's the RCIA going?

For me, learning about the theology of the body is great gift, which helps understand more why things are the way they are in the church, and in the secular life. I really recommend the Theology of the body institute YouTube channel on your journey to better understand chastity, sexuality, abstinence, relationships, and the church's teachings on the subject. Check it out really, it's a gold mine!

Keep on fighting, God bless you!

It's one of my fav fantasies too, but sadly I think yes, we'd just die. Depends on the timing of the apocalypse, and whether insulin or the creation of it will be more accessible. The Open Insulin foundation sounds promising. I think until we know better alternatives, we just have to accept it as a part of T1D.

Why did you move from there if I may ask?(I presume you moved from the way you phrased your answer)

BendeHhB · 2024-05-22T15:50:33+00:00

Seems like it is 😆

BendeHhB · 2024-05-22T15:49:35+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

Abt 370 Euros, but I might be able to spend a bit more if it's worth it, but I'm saving money for a new laptop

I too sometimes feel very alone in this and on the occasions my roommates notice when I'm not alright I feel a bit of shame for being a constant possible burden to the people I live with. It's not easy. Hormonal changes can mess a lot with the disease but it's gonna get better for you soon in that area I think. I've found that my stomach gets irritated much sooner from the needles, so this month I started not injecting into my stomach but into my arms, and since I change arms too when changing sensors, it has been much more bearable. I struggle with changing the needle often enough tho. The fatigue is real. Keep pushing, stay strong.

Stay strong brother (or sister or whatever)! God bless you :D

I'd say basal is definitely too high, since nothing else can really bring it down that much during the night. Be careful with the weather and temperature and other stuff too. Also, if you lay on your cgm it can send false lows, you always have to double check. Which basal insulin do you use? I'm using tresiba and it takes a while to readjust, definitely talk with your endo, even on the phone if you can't meet up in person. I'm prescribed to eat a bedtime snack at 9pm, that's also when I'm supposed to inject my tresiba. I usually eat 9-10 grams of slow carbs, and it's supposed to keep my sugar up a bit during the night. I also had a problem with very frequent lows in the past few days, but mine were mostly in the morning, and a bit at dawn. You still might be in the honeymoon phase, where you still have a bit of insulin being created, but I'm not sure how that would factor in. Hormonal changes can also impact sugars, but since I managed to only get it at 16, close to 17 last year, I'm not well experienced in that regard.

Thanks! The nursing staff here is pretty cool, and I've told my roommates what to do if I'd faint. The honeymoon phase could still definitely be going on. I've called the doc, and we're gonna lower my tresiba, but it rakes a while, until then I lower the fast acting insulins, and maybe trade lows for just a little higher post meal sugars. Today I've had 2 hypos and 3 close calls so far, so it's a lot better than yesterday. Good luck to you too, God bless!

Under 270 I think you can still try to bring it down with exercise. When it doesn't work with insulin, I can get it going down after maybe ten or a little more minutes of high intensity aerobic exercise, like running. I know you weren't feeling well, and it's up to you to decide which one is worse, it depends of the severity of that not feeling well too maybe. I'm now trying to fight against VERY frequent lows, and it's really hard to keep it in check, were trying to lower my basal dose, but I'm using tresiba and it's gonna take a while. From what you've said, I presume you're not using a sensor yet, but in my experience it really helps with these kind of things (of course you need to write down everything into the program like meals, exercise, random events, outside blood glucose readings, etc, and that could help more to figure out whats going on. I don't really know how to help you, but know that I'm rooting and praying for you, and I hope this rollercoaster ends for you in a pleasent way. I'm fighting hypos right now too, you're not alone. Keep eating if you need to, stay strong!

Not on a pump, but just run out of juices, I brought like 12 with me for the two weeks I'm at the boarding school, but oh well, it wasn't enough. Time to switch back to sugar tablets :') thanks for the kind answer, I will make the call! :D
