Both of y'all - I'd be into meeting up as well. I'm waiting for the support group Sam Iam listed to accept me, maybe we can all attend the next one at the very least?

Hi!

I've lived with T1D for 11 years, and I know very few people who live with the disease.

I live in Manhattan, and I get the sense that it is hard to meet people with T1D in the city. Nicole - let me know if you're interested in meeting. I've certainly started to feel tired of it as well.

Hi there...this is my first time commenting here. I don't know anyone else with disease...I've had it for 28 years now and have recently begun to feel isolated & just tired of it. I would love to meet other diabetics...just to hang out and talk. I live in queens but manhattan is not a problem :-)

I've been to this meetup group for T1's and I always enjoy it. It's about once a month. Usually in Manhattan.

Check out ACT1 diabetes - they're a support group and more in NYC. ACT1 stands for Adults Coping with Type 1. Their website is: www.act1diabetes.org/ -- although it didn't seem to be working for me right now. They're quite active -- if you're having trouble figuring out how to get in contact, just let me know-- I have some old emails from them in my email from when I attended a meeting or two back in the day.

I went to one at Joslin when I was diagnosed, about 18 years ago and it was all T2s who were completely uneducated. I wrote it off til now. Realizing I'm feeling really isolated with this disease!

I'm interested in a NYC group, too. I feel like this should be easier to find than it is!
