I am a stupid, stupid idiot

[imtrying]

I've never really thought that I can take a day off from it all. I've gone for periods without testing but still estimated carbs and doses and reacted to feeling high/low with a correction. I was pretty good at it in the end.🙄

But, tempting though it is, I believe that a day off is just trying to hide from a part of yourself that you don't much like. Better to try and deal with it and find ways of doing the stuff you want within the bounds of it.

But we all have different pressures and stresses, so I guess it's easy to say and hard to do.🙂

methinks you've posted a reply to the other thread 😉

but yes, I couldn't imagine my life without it and I don't think I'd really know what to do with myself if they actually found a cure. It's who I am, it's very much a part of me, and it must have contributed to who I am at some stage too. I'd probably forget to NOT inject haha

Woke up this morning feeling high - thirsty, dry mouth, needing the toilet....and straight away I reaslised. I FORGOT!!! to take my lantus last night

Feel like a total idiot.

You are not an idoit, I think most people with diabetes have forgotten to take their Insulin. It's just one of those things that happen. I know I have done that it the past, not nice 😛 Sheena
