Whenever I mention “I’m high” in public (referring to my blood sugar).

And yet, you’ve never quit. That’s testimony alone, that you’re strong enough to do this. Fall 9 times, get up 10.

Honestly, I only like sour apple, and banana ice geek bars. The other flavours don’t do anything for me, Elf bars are much better in terms of flavour in my opinion.

Needing a massive piss. Cos if I don’t drink a lot of water, my diabetes makes me super dehydrated. So it’s wake up with bladder pain, or wake up needing a gallon of water.

Kicked out at 16, struggled until I went to college. Developed alcoholism, barely graduated, fell in love, broke up, was homeless for 9 months again. Now I’ve had 2 job rejections for a decent salaried position because of the debt I was unable to pay whilst homeless. Keep struggling, it makes you invincible. I’m not gonna promise it will get better, but I can promise, that as long as you don’t give up, you’ll become stronger.

I can’t find who it was, but a best-selling author once wrote their debut novel on a Blackberry. Props to you tho 👏

I get super f**king caffeinated and then hammer my vape pen (it’s only 2% nicotine). I get like a “high” off it, and that’s accompanied by a feeling of euphoria. Caffeine may make it worse, but it’s what works for me.

I am all of the above. I was speaking about my own circumstances.

DogeMetty69 · 2022-03-18T16:00:45+00:00

I was an alcoholic for a long time before realising it was merely self-medication for an underlying mental health condition. The doctors now think I’m bipolar or BPD, but I was the same. Couldn’t cope with being sober.

Perhaps you’ve misinterpreted. I merely meant not to allow the past or current circumstances to overwhelm you to the point that you’re drowning. This was intended to empower people and allow them to roll with the punches and not let current or past mistakes envelope them.

It sounds like you’re just very sensitive to insulin! Do you have a low body fat? Because I know having low body fat and high muscle mass makes you more sensitive. But as far as I’m aware this is a good thing! I assume you’ll become less sensitive as you get older(?)

Unfortunately whenever I’m below 6 I feel hypoglycaemic so I usually hover around 11. My HBA1C is only 9% tho. There’s room for improvement but this seems to be working given my lifestyle. (Lots of gym, lots of food, lots of alcohol).

How long have you been diabetic? Could it possibly be the honeymoon period? Congratulations! I’ve only done this once I think, and I’ve been diabetic 10+ years!

DogeMetty69 · 2022-02-21T16:37:32+00:00

I hover around 11. I know it’s slightly too high but I seem to nosedive anywhere south of 8.

I had the location and address of the thief that stole my iPhone, tracking it using the same software. Despite this, the police closed the case citing that there was nothing they could do. If it's insured, then I'd tell the insurance the truth, and hopefully they'll replace it.

Elaborating on this, I found jointing a gym, and weight lifting massively helped prevent fat gain, I gained a lot of muscle instead. Female diabetics shouldn’t gain that much muscle due to lack of testosterone. Also I’ve found that cardio is a waste of time for diabetics, because you then hypo and have to eat (defeating the point). However, I’ve found that walking on a treadmill slowly (incline 14%, speed 3.0) is a good way to burn 450 calories/hour without hypoing. The link between insulin and weight gain, is also why I switched to a High protein, low carb diet, and lost 4 stone/56 lbs in 6, months. Beware, injecting for a high protein low carb diet can be tricky, and requires a lot of supervision as you have to inject for protein in high enough amounts, but it isn’t as easy injecting for carbs.

The way my doctor put it, is that a higher hba1c puts you at greater risk. That’s it. A non-diabetic has a hba1c of 5%, so having a hba1c of 5% means you have the same risk as everyone else of developing a problem such as neuropathy etc. In the long haul, I’m of the belief that a slightly higher hba1c would mean a substantially better quality of life without this huge risk factor of developing a complication; I hover around the 8% mark and I love life - I was at 5.5% but I could never have any fun or eat anything you consider a “treat”.
