Hello to my fellow Type 1 Diabetics and family members of Type 1 Diabetics! Recently, I have had loved ones almost make me feel crazy for feeling the "feelings" that come with diabetes. Some days I am so content and happy. Some days are hard. Yesterday my blood sugar got high in the middle of the night and I woke up feeling kind of sick, disappointed in myself and sad. Am I a crazy person or do others feel this way as well sometimes? I don't feel this way ALWAYS, my mood just fluctuates with this disease sometimes. Is this normal?

@amissundastood that is how I have been feeling lately. A lot of loved ones look at me and almost shake their heads when I am sad or feel anxious. They say there is something wrong with me. I feel like this disease is something hard to deal with and I am not crazy. We should not let them get the best of us! If you ever need to talk or vent, please message me!
It's completely normal. I've been frustrated myself with my diabetes. š¤it is completely okay to feel your feelings. It's difficult for people who don't have any type of condition to be compassionate with those who do have a condition. But you are definitely not alone with having your moods fluctuate. I have been feeling very depressed and frustrated with mine as I said š so I understand.
@LotusFlower thank you so much š„² I don't feel psychotic anymore. I've been aching to hear what you have just said to me. It's like a breath of fresh air. I have been feeling so many emotions and although I don't wish anyone to feel these things, knowing I am not alone is comforting. If you ever need someone to listen, I would be happy to be that person. Thank you for confirming that I am not alone in this. I am sad that you are having to go through this as well, but at the very least, we are not alone!
