Really, I'm fine.
How do you let go of some thing that feels like it has a hold of you?
Pay no attention to the sweat flowing down my forehead and dripping off of my chin. Really, I'm fine. My blood sugar must be low, I just need to eat.
I really do not want out of my skin more than I want my next breath. Really, I'm fine. My blood sugar must be low, I just need to eat.
My hands always shake like this, just like how most people bounce one of their legs. Really, I'm fine. My blood sugar must be low, I just need to eat.
When in doubt, blame Diabetes. Its not a lie, its just a really convenient excuse. What do you want from me? The truth?

What I want for you is to keep being you just as you are. You are a work in progress, unfolding. I say this because I see stength. Bold and brave you are not afraid to express your experience through your poety, a pure art form that touches the hearts of others in a profound way.
Beautiful poetry for me, and listening to music; songs that are special to me and bring out deep feelings, helps me relate to others stories and tie them to my own secret emotions. You allow me to experience feelings with a new perspective.

painter - The joys of being a Diabetic who also has depression / other issues. Its far easier to play the Diabetic card than it is to tell some one what really is going on. People are far more accepting having Diabetes, than people who deal with depression and other issues. At times they are treated as outcasts, or at the very least looked at in a very different light.
