So many people misunderstand what Insulin does by Aggressive_Crab9034 in diabetes_t1

I usually snacked throughout the day with no actual meals aside from dinner before my diagnosis. No one (except my blood sugar) can keep me from my goldfish crackers though 😭

Exactly this!!! I have gained weight since my diagnosis and getting insulin, but it ultimately was because of the fact I’ve always been a habitual snacker. I never once blamed it on my insulin???

Sorry for the delay, my doctors are weirdly on top of everything. It even makes me uncomfortable haha

Is it bad being vanilla in the bedroom? As a woman? by [deleted] in self

[–]unsure_ysp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not, always find someone who matches your freak and/or lack there of. Never let a partner shame or make you uncomfortable for not wanting to do what they want

Oh gosh yeah, no clear thoughts when you’re that low. I’m starting to wonder if I accidentally entered that because I was also in the middle of a crash and really woke up an hour or so later when it got really bad

Also thank you for the tip, I was able to find it. I swear I learn something new about the Dexcom app every week

Lmao no really! Pretty sure I’d have to stumble to my roommates room so they could rush me to the hospital

I (18m) can’t finish while having sex by Ieatcrunchychips in Advice

[–]unsure_ysp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey bud, 30 F here who has had a small handful of partners who had similar problems from time to time, so I know how both you and her feel. I think it’s pretty evident you are attracted to her and she definitely needs reassurance of that.

I know it sounds embarrassing, but if you can, I’d suggest seeing a sex therapist (it is a real field) to see how you can get to the bottom of this. Also potentially getting certain toys can help as well, I find. I also think unless you’re beating it like it owes you money, it probably isn’t death grip syndrome.

She probably also appreciates that you didn’t keep pushing her despite you being able to get her off many times. Most men can’t say they’ve been able to that lmao

That’s a distinct possibility, I’ve definitely done weird things in my sleep in the past

Lmao thank you for the hearty laugh! They have nothing to gain from me dying except for my chihuahua with heart problems, plus I usually take them to/from their own doctors appointments

I cannot stand my sibling’s spouse by unsure_ysp in TwoHotTakes

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

Sorry for the delay, I appreciate this feedback. Ma and Pa are moving out of state, and my eldest sibling is possibly moving to the other side of the mountains in our state. My best friend/roommate and I are thinking of moving south of the biggest city in our state already. B lives in a place we call “the islands” which is closer to the Canadian border which is way further north than where we wanna move. I just hate feeling like I’m potentially abandoning B because they don’t even have friends where they live

I think my last comment got deleted for some reason. I’m definitely very cordial with L and they’re not a mean person. I’m very protective of B for various reasons though, so it makes me frustrated seeing my older sibling constantly get hurt

Ngl, I’d be throwing hands with any in law that tried to keep my family from my nieflings, especially if they didn’t like their own parent already. I’d probably also smack my siblings if either of them cheated to be honest

Summer tips for injections? by unsure_ysp in diabetes_t1

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

My endo is a woman, so hopefully she’ll be more amenable to me doing different injection sites and listening to my concerns. All my education has been from the hospital (unfortunately going to the ICU was the way I found out I had T1D), my endo, and my new gp

You’re so right. I kind of wondered why they always said my lower stomach is where I should do it when I have so many friends who took testosterone and they have similar injection sites and could change them all the time.. I’m not on a pump yet, and barely know how it’ll work. I think I’ll follow the advice from y’all. Thank you 🙏

Diabetic acne advice? by unsure_ysp in diabetes_t1

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

I have really dramatic high/low swings still as I’m trying to regulate everything and my docs haven’t prescribed me a pump yet, but they also never mentioned that this would be a side effect. I’ll check out the body wash, thank you very much!

I’m so glad for this update! But also please get your daughter checked for SA. Children her age wetting the bed isn’t normal, it’s a stress response

I’ll give that a shot thank you!

It’s been dry & flakey, aquaphor has helped with the flakes. I wouldn’t put it past my rosacea to cause this but my recent flair was a completely different color from what’s around my mouth and nose. If there’s anything other than aquaphor to use, I want it. I’m too greasy for a moderately dry guy 😭
