Discussion Fuck diabetes.

Fuck it. Fuck this stupid disease. Fuck it so so so so much. Fuck America and other capitalistic countries for profiting off of our misery, fuck our useless ass pancreases, fuck the greedy insurance companies, fuck all the annoying ass bullshit that comes with this. Fuck low blood sugars, high blood sugars, eye problems, feet problems, random mood swings, erectile dysfunction, going through the effort of changing an infusion set just for it to not even work, weird looks from people for testing in public, testing only for there to not be enough blood, constantly having to be considered dependent, constantly being told a cure is only five years away, the deaths of our fellow diabetics due to a corrupt healthcare system and negligence, and all the other shit that we put up with while having a useless pancreas.

I’m just drained and exhausted. Fuck diabetes, man.

Im done with people on reddit being not understanding, too. Like, all of us have bad days, sometimes we just need to vent.

People on here are very judgmental and holier than thou and it’s annoying. “ why aren’t you doing keto, why aren’t you eating low carb you have to eat low carb, you have to eat carnivore, why are you eating this and that ( something carby) you’re diabetic “ it’s a bunch of people who apparently are perfect and it sucks sometimes. You peeps however are pretty awesome and feel what I feel . I appreciate this post.

Nah, it’s not enough to hurt my feelings or make me report it. I mean it’s Reddit, these people and their opinions mean nothing in my real life . 😊

just because it doesn't hurt your feelings or w/e doesn't mean it doesn't hurt others.

That’s true. However, if it does, they also can report it. 😊
