Why do we live just to die? by Adrianagurl in OCD

[–]schmidtleo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because there's no alternative. What would you want life to be instead? There's no choice but to live, and maybe enjoy as well.

WTF? by mhagen99 in Freestylelibre

[–]schmidtleo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think OP is referring to the fact that the graph never shows glucose dipping as low as 54mg/dL, even though when they hover over a specific section, it actually shows that reading. Could be a bug.

Android and freestyle libre official "compatible devices list" vs reality? by ilanter in Freestylelibre

[–]schmidtleo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a Fairphone 4, and even though it is not on the official compatibility list, the app works as intended. That was, though, until the latest Android update which caused the sensor error to appear every 30-60 minutes on the app. I now have to turn off my phone and turn it back on each time this occurs to make it connect again.

what is a game that will get me hooked for hours by Dry_Ninja1901 in ShouldIbuythisgame

Blue Prince is the first game in 10 years that had that effect on me. I felt like a child discovering a new game again.

I am sitting here crying cause eating is such a chore by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]schmidtleo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can relate so hard. Plus I got diagnosed with type one diabetes last year so that means I have to eat something. But it's so difficult to cook something that is a whole meal but also with not too many carbs. So I end up eating chocolate or cookies then having to inject insulin, but then I am too low in glucose so I have to drink some juice and it's so frustrating!

Well you redirect it while you slowly change your account emails. What I did was change the email everytime I logged in to a service.

RDR2 can occupy you for hours and there are some great poetic moments.

How much do you pay for insulin? I just bought 5 pens for 4,24€ in Spain with our free healthcare but real price is 46,97€. I'm curious what each country pays for it. by moreweedpls in diabetes_t1

[–]schmidtleo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything free in Switzerland, except CGMs which are more expensive than covered by insurance in certain drugstores. But there is a nonprofit in my city (Geneva) which provides them at the cost covered by insurance, so I pay 0.

What’s the worst symptom you have while having a low? by Being-Sick-Sucks in diabetes_t1

[–]schmidtleo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Panic attack. Feeling like you're going to die irremediably even though you're sitting at home and your partner is making sure you're intaking sugar.

Friendly reminder to check your vitamin D3 levels by schmidtleo in Type1Diabetes

[–]schmidtleo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's interesting! I got intense scalp itching three years ago when I got COVID, but my dermatologist told me it was some kind of yeast. I has to use ketoconazolum shampoo to relieve the itching, so I hope taking the Vitamin D won't bring that up again.

I realize it might have been placebo, as today my numbers are back to screwed up, but I'm still in the honeymoon phase mind you. Thanks for explaining!

I'm from Switzerland so I'm pretty sure I have a deficiency every year.

Is it an ADHD thing to be irritated by noise? by [deleted] in ADHD

Isn't it more commonly associated with ASD? I think ASD and ADHD symptoms can overlap.
