Diabetes and Depression
Posted on Aug 09, 2008 under everyday life |Everyone told me that I would get depressed after being diagnosed with diabetes, but I don’t think being diabetic is what has made me as depressed as I am. I have always been depressed. My life has not been great, but it hasn’t been horrible. It just seems that nothing seems to work out. A month ago I started thinking that maybe this time diabetes was to blame. I have never been as depressed as I am now. Ever. I keep hearing that for a women her 20’s is one of the best times of her life, mine suck and I’m already half way though them. Maybe I’m just expecting too much. I don’t know. I’m just so tired of felling empty I know that’s the problem as when I went to see a good friend of mine I felt finally that I was my age and happy and young. Now I feel old again. I don’t do anything because no one cares or if they do it’s only for money or to complain about their boyfriends. That doesn’t help me at all.
The problem is all of this mess, whatever it is, is effecting my ability to think, do anything and I just feel sick all of the time. I just don’t see a way out of it. I can’t find work and i have no money. If I could move things would be better. I could move closer to people who actually care. Maybe I just need to live with these weird mood issues and deal. Is this something most diabetics deal with? or is it just me?
