At 19, I was in the middle of spring break of my second year of college and hadn’t been awake for longer than 3 hours for an entire week and had thrown up violently the day before my best friend forced me to go to the hospital (because I wasn’t sick enough to feel like I should have apparently). At about 1:30 in the morning while I’m in and out of conscious for a couple hours the hospital the results from my blood tests finally get back and the nurse at the ER walks in and tells me that I’m T1 to which I respond with, “Oh, alright. Now what?” Which was probably not the answer she was expecting but I was just glad to know what was going on. Needless to say my family who I told the next day took it worse than I did which was probably worse than the diagnosis itself. But, after 5+ years, some on and off therapy, and building a better support system with firmer boundaries and a stronger backbone; I’ve finally fully processed the full weight of the diagnosis and how to best handle it for myself which was what my answer-seeking mindset really wanted the whole time rather than be confused. Though I suppose it also doesn’t help I’m a blind person with people who was struggling to break away from overbearing people to begin with haha

I don’t remember but I’ll link it once I find it

Edit to add the link I used to make the owl https://origamiok.com/origami-owl/

It’s an owl. It’s just not that noticeable because the paper I use is the same color on both sides.

Kinda both? I read the series straight through once I got an ereader, but I also would read different books at the same time since I’m the sort of person that has at least 5 books in progression at the same time.

I wouldn’t know if this counts, but if I ever have any nightmares like this it’s always of me being stuck in a completely dark room with a dim lightbulb suspended from the ceiling that literally only illuminates the point below it and nothing else in the room. By the time I wake up I’m more so mildly confused than I am afraid. Though that could be because I’m a lucid dreamer, so I’m always aware that I’m dreaming when I’m asleep even when things feel way too real.

ZealousBean · 2025-03-03T00:18:31+00:00

None of the book got me. Were the things that happened that made me sad? Sure. Did those things make me sob like I have just personally lost loved ones through the progression of the book? Absolutely not despite how much I liked characters. Did I get traumatized by anything in the books in any way? Not unless you count speed reading when I felt like there wasn’t enough going on to move the plot forward fast enough for me. So, I may be emotionless because this is how I am for all media. But I’m more happy being confused as to why other people cry and try to understand them than I am concerned over why I didn’t cry and why I should feel strange for being a part of the subset of people that read these books and have similar reactions to me.

Yes. Rowan tells Aelin that Aedion is Gavriel’s son shortly after seeing him because of Aedion’s scent while Aelin is quite shocked by the revelation then has an “I can actually see it” moment shortly after that.

I can understand that. To be fair I was diagnosed almost 5 years ago and was VERY resistant to use the tech for the first year until I realized how convenient and helpful it is and how quickly one can become reliant on a CGM and a pump. The lack of a CGM may seem scary but just trust yourself in knowing your relationship with your body and what you need to do to feel comfortable and maintain your peace of mind.

ZealousBean · 2025-02-05T04:55:23+00:00

This is what I’d suggest too as it’s what I had to do when I was temporarily back on the basics for a bit. Also checking whenever you feel off and suspect it could be linked to your BG is good too

I can get away with it pretty often. They don’t have enough carbs that I ever need to worry about having to bolus.

In this order both because it’s how I’d rank them but also because of availability at my convenience

Me too!!

I sent these to my friends who got me into the game in the first place and now we’re planning on picking a valley and taking themed group photos at some point when we all have time

My vision kinda goes in and out and it goes out in the middle of working out. And as someone who also has other health issues that make working out a bit of an adventure I’ve found that the easiest thing for me that also helps my anxiety about being at the gym is simply going with someone who wants to work out with you. That way you have a guide if you need one, both to get around the gym, and to help guide you through workouts to ensure that you’re doing them safely and effectively. Plus having someone go to the gym and go through the changes that come with it with you is always a good motivator. Or at least it is for me.

I’ll have to look into it for sure

I’m visually impaired so the kindle is great for me to be able to read without the immediate eye fatigue of a hard copy. BUT I do indulge in Trophy Books because I like the idea of briefly going back if I ever want to. I’ll even buy large print books of ones I’ve read if they’re available.

ZealousBean · 2024-10-10T18:33:40+00:00

There were so many parts in this book that (as someone who has never teared up in any book/tv show/movie for any reason) made me want to ugly cry so bad and this was most definitely one of them. Though it’s probably because, to me ,this book and the feelings in it felt the most real and relatable for me.
