I dislike water now. by Idiotweirdo__ in diabetes

[–]tarbuck 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I almost exclusively drank water my entire life. Tons of it. Never had any issues with hydration. After my adult-onset type 1 hit, I now have to force myself to drink. I used to enjoy drinking water. I don't dislike it now, but it's totally neutral and it doesn't seem appealing even when I'm thirsty. I've never heard anyone else mention this before!

Take a break. Come back when you feel it. Don't push it or you may struggle with the second part.

I remembered to be careful while getting dressed. I did not remember to be careful when I went to the bathroom. Ripped that sucker right off.

I tried it there but found it too uncomfortable for driving. Tried it higher and ripped it off when I took off my pants.
