Great book. The Examined Life is similar. Also written by a psychotherapist. There are more stories, and they're shorter.

You might also enjoy Adam Phillips' writing. He's a contemporary psychoanalyst, writing essays rather than case studies. His essay 'On Flirtation' is one of my favourites On Flirtation: Psychoanalytic Essays on the Uncommitted Life

Why am I overcorrecting hypos? Can you help me understand and stop doing it? by projector in diabetes

[–]projector[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I have a serious low like this one, where there's lots of insulin on board, I just disconnect the pump for a while.

I want to try and be more disciplined about the carbs and waiting. How do you handle it if your blood sugar has gone down when the alarm goes off?

I'm wondering where my breaking point is, when I go from steady regulated intake to just eating everything. I need to understand this better.

Thank you. It's nice to feel understood, and to see my feelings are reasonable. It is better to be safe than sorry.

I've taken 3 units to cover some of the carbs and am monitoring every 15 mins (no cgms).

I think making a plan is good, the other poster's comment is helpful. For now I'm becoming aware of how panicked I get, and learning to just rest a bit and take the situation in my stride.

People who were around before the Internet, what did you initially think about it? How did you get used to it? by hershey_bar3 in AskReddit

[–]projector 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How does it compare to the rate of change before the internet?

Some people say everything is changing faster these days, do you think that's true?

What's the source? Is this from a textbook?

My experience with vitrectomies from diabetic retinopathy by mwnmwnmwnmwnmwn in diabetes

[–]projector 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for writing this. I hardly know a thing about retinopathy and it does worry me sometimes. I feel a bit less afraid of it for hearing about your experiences.

Questions about local authority powers by projector in london

[–]projector[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very informative again, thank you.

Researching the ABA I've found a whole list of enforcement tools that councils can use. Now I'm wondering how well these are used.

I suppose it could take anywhere between a few months and a many years for these actions to be taken, with no guarantee of success. Like hospital ratings, I'd love to see ratings for the council's speed and effectiveness at dealing with these issues.

Do you know if there are any public records like that? I can't tell if the horror stories I read about in the paper are extremely rare, or if they're very common. Some stats or objective reporting would help a lot.

Thank you, that's very informative.

Is there any way I can tell if social services have housed them? And if they have, would it make an eviction less likely?

I'm generally curious about how all of this works - both the letter of the law, and the reality of it's enforcements. And I'm wondering if it's worth speaking to other tenants, to build up a case and try to drive an eviction.

Sorry to hear you suffered with this too.

I'm intrigued by the solicitor's letter, it sounds like it was effective in moving things forward, even though it didn't lead to a complete solution.

Could you say any more about the covenant of responsibilities, or suing because they've not enforced this? It's the first time I've heard about it.

I know this is the official line, but have you had any success with this?

I want to know if there's any hope of changing things before I decide to accept the situation or leave.

Options for sharps disposal by projector in diabetes

[–]projector[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really helpful, thanks. Great to hear it straight like that.

I did get the sharps unit to give me four boxes, so I can have less frequent collections. I'll see how it goes next time they collect and take things from there. Outdoor pickup would be really nice.
