@cass.t1d: Started feeling weird in the shower, got out & finger prick said 50. Low blood sugar is hard to explain - it’s like things start to feel like they’re moving slow, it feels harder to breathe, you feel distant. A quiet panic while you work to get your sugar back up before you might pass out. Being alone through this can feel really scary. Chronic illness is showing up and loving yourself each and every day 💙 #type1diabetes #diabetesawareness #lowbloodsugar
It’s so scary and eating when you don’t wanna eat is pure torture

Having someone doesn’t make it any better, I actually hate it. I dont want to be asked if I’m okay 50 times while treating a low

And people forget that not only do you feel bad during low blood sugars but you also need some time to really recover from it afterwards too.

It’s so bad for me. I start sweating to the point where I’m completely drenched, I’m freezing, and my body is completely weak🤦

I was just diagnosed with type one beginning of December and since than every night I’ve been having low sugar in the middle of the night and getting the energy to get up to get some sugar is the hardest thing

Sometimes I forget that not everyone feels the same way not being a type 1. I’ve never known life without being type 1 so it’s hard for me to think “oh you don’t feel tired ALL of the time EVERY day?”

I’m crying. My son moved out recently. I have his Dexcom on my phone. When he is low I am a crazy person. Thankfully he has an amazing girlfriend who helps him. She is an absolute godsend 💙. Really helps, but I still worry and watch his number until it’s normal

Me. Today. In the middle of the workday as a meeting was ending. I felt it before my cgm alerted. Lows are the worst feeling.

I hate having Type 1 diabetes. Sometimes I get scared of eating cause it will spike my sugar. But when I don't eat, it drops and I have to eat something even at 2 or 3 am 😔

I've since started praying. I don't know if your spiritual, but my God is always there and definitely helps fill that void when I am alone with a low. ❤️

Is a service dog an option? They can get you what you need when you’re low?
