DO NOT tell me I’m a “Bad Diabetic”
You don’t have diabetes.
You don’t know how hard it is.
I try my best to manage what I didn’t ask for!

Insulin is NOT a cure Diabetes;
it is a treatment. It enables the
diabetic to burn sufficient
carbohydrates so that proteins
and fats may be added to the
diet in sufficient quantities to
provide energy for the
economic burdens of life.

Diabetes T1 – Quote

Posted on October 22, 2024 by Nyx

They say how are you? I say I am tired.
They look at me in shock.
They say what could you be tired about?
I say I’m fighting more then you could ever imagine.
They give me that look yet again.
I go on to explain it’s here even though they can’t see it. I feel it even though they can’t feel it. It changes my moods, messes up my days as well as my nights.
They look at me like I’m mental…
I get my injections out before I eat at the resturant where all the questions and crazy looks are directed my way. I take my injection and aim it to my thigh. They don’t know weather to look away or stare.
I can’t help that I have Type 1 Diabetes.
I can’t help that I need to take my Insulin.
They can stare and ask all the questions they wish. But they will never understand.
Diabetes is here even if you can’t see it!
