From people who came through it

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. Not that long ago, about a year, that was me. The worst part was my HbA1c going up again. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. Bit by bit it comes back. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ€

  • โ€œDear stranger, i was in the same place eighteen months ago. For me it was family telling me what I can eat at weddings. Last month I had people round for dinner. The bad days get further apart. Praying for you.โ€

  • โ€œIf you've just found this place, I was in the same place eighteen months ago. Hypos at night, every single day. I got a new job in April. You get yourself back in pieces.โ€

  • โ€œEighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. Back then it was diabetes burnout where I stop checking. Last weekend I went to a friend's birthday and stayed till the end. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. From someone who gets it.โ€
