This past month has been really bad for me regarding the whole diabetes thing. About a month ago I took off my CGM because I honestly just couldn't handle the beeps, buzzing and the blood gushing sites because my mental state of being is just not all here right now.

 

I have decided to put the CGM back on tonite. My blood sugars have really been suffering since I took the CGM off and it is time to get back on track. I really want to have a family and  without getting my blood sugars better,  that is pretty much going to be an impossible task.

 

My recent visit to the eye doctor was a real "eye opener'.  I don't want diabetes complications and I am scared that I will get them sooner than later...When I get down about having diabetes why do I get into this horrible pattern where it just feels like I don't want to do anything to take care of myself correctly.

 

It really becomes a frustrating up and downhill battle. Just when I think I am doing GREAT, the little devil comes and sits on my shoulder to take all the good I have done away, and I am back at square one.

 

I need to get myself together... or my hopes of having a family will be shot. I hope I can get through another obstacle. Wish me luck.
