@tyme Quietly going crazy. All I do now is cry I’m just so stressed and overwhelmed, I’ve been put on new insulin cause my blood sugar readings have been very high but don’t think the new insulin is working either feel like I’m slowly dying and no one can do anything for me. So worried about everything including my money and my study, feel like I can’t do anything right and nothing is working out for me doesn’t seem much point in living if all this is happening and can’t see it getting better any time soon

Hey @Happychick , I'm sorry to hear this. It sounds so hard to manage. I'll be honest, I can relate to the feelings but I can't relate to the insulin part. I wonder if @Shaz51 is able to share some of their insights into what it is like to require insulin etc?

@tyme @Thanks that would be really helpful I’ve been on insulin for about 3 years now but always found it hard to manage. I was increasing it all the time till they changed the brand on Tuesday and the dosage might need to adjust the dosage a bit nothing is perfect I guess it’ll work out just need to give it time and have lots of patience and try to relax if I can

Hello @Happychick , @tyme 

I am now on  insulin 3 times a day plus 2 other diabetes medication 

Are you on NDSS for all your diabetes needs 

Sometimes it is hard to get the right balance 

My dosage has increased and it does take time for the body to adjust 

Sending you lots of understanding hugs my friend 🧡
