If Type 1 Diabetes was a job
I made this "job ad" and posted it on LinkedIn for Diabetes Awareness Month. Nobody would apply. But lots of us still have to do this...
One woman's life with Type 1 Diabetes
As a life long self managed condition, Type 1 Diabetes can be really challenging. Every day it's a balance between focusing on your diabetes and everything else in your life. There are no breaks, few rewards, lots of frustrations and a lot at stake. It's a lot to get your head around.
I think the mental health aspects of living with this condition have lacked the attention they deserve which is why I write about them. It helps me process my own thoughts and hopefully helps others.
