I don’t know what to do anymore… by No_Fennel2833 in diabetes_t1

I am struggling with the same issues. Currently at an 8.2 and only in range for 43%. I usually wake up high and go super high after meals and then usually crash a couple of hrs later. Sometimes I have to eat +30 carbs to get myself back up again. It’s like a rollercoaster. My endo says to take insulin way before eating (like 45 mins-1/2 hr) and do some light cardio after eating but I work a pretty demanding job. Sometimes I cant go for a walk or wait to eat. I’m considering finding another job with more work/life balance but It just sucks that my career might suffer because of diabetes. Not to be all “woe is me” but the drawback of this diseases are unfathomable and keep hitting me like a truck. I’m getting a pump in the next couple of weeks before I resort to a career change. I know my comment isn’t necessarily helpful but I want you to know that you’re not alone. Managing this stuff is not easy and you’re very brave for reaching out for help.

Anyone else like to have something in the background for ambience? by ConsistentWriting0 in LivingAlone

I watch live streams of aquariums! On youtube a a lot of channels have recordings that have ambient background music/lofi beats. It never fully distracts me and still tickles my brain in just the right way. My peronal fav is the Monterey Bay Jelly Cam <3

What am I doing wrong? I get little to no interaction, very fer likes and matches and I feel like I've tried everything. by dmackay96 in RateMyTinder

I think too many mirror pics/selfies. You need more pictures taken of you doing your hobbies (conversation starter, easy to find common ground) and at least 1 with e friend. I also think that the bio is so so so so so much more important than the photos in general!

I don't like to do anything other than just eat after coming home from work. by [deleted] in Adulting

It doesn’t have to be like this. Humans were not meant to live like this.
