DAY 29: TIPS AND TRICKS. Having Type 1 Diabetes means a lot of “guesstimating”. We are our own guinea pigs, and if we make a mistake we can pay for it with our lives. The hardest part for me is the toll it takes on my mental health. My tips for this disease: Be patient, practice self compassion, don’t ever give up. Test even when you don’t want to. Reach out to other diabetics when you are burning out. Look for support among people who love you as well as people who fully understand what you’re going through. Find a really great nutritionist. Ask allllllll the questions. None of them are stupid. Treat your body with kindness and give it everything it needs, not everything it wants. Feel free to PM me if you’re a struggling Diabetic. Let’s support one another. ♥️♥️♥️ @im_greaterthan #type1diabetesawarenessmonth #insulinjunkie #type1diabetesawareness #freestylelibre #juvenilediabetes https://www.instagram.com/p/BrOUIBsAveu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zp7rgvy2njwz
