Stoyan commented on TooSweet's blog post 'Cruise ship/Flight attendant'"Hmmm. I'm afraid I can't be of too much help, but military ship/flight staff unfortunately are not accepted with diabetes. Maybe for commercial service the rules are different, but the only way to know for sure is to call companies and ask."

TooSweet posted a blog postCruise ship/Flight attendant
Well i have been thinking about my future career.. I really like the sounds of working on a cruise ship! I think it would be an amazing job.. That or a flight attendant I really want to see the world! But can I still choose these career paths if I have diabetes?? I've read things saying you need a medical examination... Does anyone know any requirements for these jobs? Or if you can still apply even if you have diabetes?See More

Maycri commented on TooSweet's blog post 'Being too sweet!'"Counseling, seriously, try it!
I did after 8 years from diagnosis and being constantly too sweet... that was actually my go to answer: "I'm diabetic cause I'm so sweet" but inside I didn't like myself and I was diabetic…"
KCCO commented on TooSweet's blog post 'Being too sweet!'"I really think counseling will help you! Sometimes I wish I had gone a few times myself. Don't be scared that it won't help--at worst, you'll still be right where you are now.
I was the opposite of you. When I was diagnosed, I just…"

I took Gotham's white knight and I brought him down to our level. It wasn't hard. You see, madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push!

I haven't been on in a while.. But I just wanted to say i'm now going to see a counselor soon so thankyou to the people who gave me the good feedback. I'll keep posted on if it helps or not.. Kind of sick of these late night feelings keeping me wide eyed and restless every dark night...

I know I have diabetes, I know how serious it is if I don't take care of it. So why do I still not care, I just can't seem to take care of my health. I will do good for a week or two, then slowly just stop checking my sugar levels and stop taking my injections all together. When people ask me why, I don't know what to say.. I normally just say it's because i'm lazy.. I know it's not that I just think it's easier to pretend nothing is wrong then to face changes.
How do I get out of this…

Would you consider helping by writing a short comment/testimonial about your
experiences at TuD? The main message for the campaign this year is that no
one with diabetes should ever feel alone. Messages from our community give
people a real-life, personal sense of how valuable TuDiabetes is to each of
us, how it's changed our lives, etc.If you can, please include a photo of you doing something diabetic (if that
makes sense LOL). Please post to this group
(http://www.tudiabetes.org/group/why-i-participate-in-this-community), or
message to jrtpup on her page.Thanks my friends!

catlover said… Hi TooSweet- Welcome to TuD. I just read your blog, you are just a newbie to D. Not even a year. You have so much to learn and you are so young. Have you spoken to your doc about this feeling you have about your D ? Any family you could talk to ? I think counseling would be a good idea to get you over the hump of falling off of the wagon. There are groups on TuD for young people like your self, you should join and have some people your own age to talk to about how you feel. Perhaps they could give you some ideas of what they are doing to feel better. We are always here for you 24/7. Cat =^..^=
