Hey there! I was diagnosed around the same time as you 🙂! I'm 19 now so I was just a year older than you! Guessing you was in the first year of GCSE's when diagnosed? Must of been difficult, mine was during exams but at least I didn't have to put up with being in school with it too often 🙂 I'm greatful I didn't have to ever put up with it whilst being in school.
As for the emotional thing, i'm totally the same, most of the time I just get on with it. I certainly did in the first place! Then I had absolutely no choice. Now its more complicated since i'm not your ordinary diabetic ppft, and thats what gets me down much more now. I don't know if you've heard of tumblr? Its a blogging website, but recently i've found a lot of diabetics and its really supportive community and also even just to spill your thoughts, like writing a diary but more public.
I'd be happy to help you out if you want to messsage me 🙂
