usually I am up and do not get depressed but once in a great while I wish I did not have diabetes for a day or so then I snap out of it and see that I am in control and life is just fine. does this ever happen to any of the rest of you? after all we are now living in an era where we have all sorts of info and help to control our blood sugar and we should be grateful for that. it is not a death sentence any more.

Hi Patsie, I suppose if one is diabetic, the feeling is not good at all. In fact, this would be an understatement. I am still healthy enough right now so I am only in the position to say that I think I can sort of understand how bad it is. Try to cheer up. Find a cat, pull its tail or something. Or pretend to be a thousand year old monster and go rob a small girl of her candy. Or sneak into the nearest Macs kitchen and put a few fish eyeballs into the coke dispenser. Stand close till someone screams and gets scared witless. Well, I was just kidding of course. Don't you go take me seriously.

I think I get the drift. just use my sense of humor a bit more. There is something funny to be found most of the time and as for being a diabetic its a lot better than having a bad heart or having cancer. at least I can control my blood sugar by how I eat and how I exercise.

oh yes I have been there and done that also and always feel bad that it was usually my own fault as I ate too much or did not exercise enough. but mostly I am in excellent control

I have diabetes and I got at early age and sometimes I get depressed and sometimes I get tired. I was in church and one Sunday we were having a small speech about the disease condition and some words are in my mind that were told. God's grace is all you need. I think even if we have diseases God's grace is all we need to be healthy and keep going in life. I think we need to look after the disease and need to live with it and do what we can in our life.

hi ajithlal You are so right and if we have G ods grace we will' know to take care of ourselves and do what we must to keep healthy though diabetic.my doctor told me to do the things I like to do but alsi check myblood glucose and keep it balanced here now where i am it harder because i cannot control what is given to me but if its not on list I just do not eat it.I do know what foods raise my blood sugar and I go really easy on them cutting portions way down.it works for control and also hurray its letting me lose some weight also.,

frankly, I don't think you have a choice. You just have to live your life properly and control your diet. All the best to you.

Nope you really do not have a choice but even so sometimes you can get a bit tired of always not being able to eat your favorite foods and then I live mylive properly and I control my diet and sometimes I can work in some of those things I miss. just a matter of balance.
