Teething Sumatran tiger cub
I almost never post on here but something is really bothering me. For reference, I am a type 1 Diabetic and have been for over 10 years. Being a type 1 Diabetic sucks. It sucks a lot I have to constantly monitor way too much.
There is a a health trend I have seen done by different people. It is monitoring your blood sugar for better health. (Quick pause, I am not against this if it is necessary and consulted with by a doctor). HOWEVER, most people are doing this with some bullshit company promoting cgms for general consumption. You know what people are finding out... That their blood sugar spikes the normal amount for the appropriate amount of time after eating food. Imagine that. Except, people don't know that your blood sugar naturally spikes a little bit, even for normal people (this is usually one of the reasons you have to fast before blood work), so they are going crazy over blood sugar numbers they don't understand.
#1 I don't want people wasting their time and money on things they don't need.
#2 I really feel like this is causing suspicion with people's doctors and more conspiracies with food and health
#3 and probably the most frustrating of all is that you absolutely do not have to be doing this. Especially to those who aren't seeing a doctor or haven't had an abnormal A1c. I have to monitor my blood sugar 24/7/365. For me it is about staying alive. I don't have a choice. To watch people basically do it for fun is so incredibly frustrating (once again not against people trying to better their health but this stuff really needs a doctor). I have to wake up in the middle of the night because of low blood sugar and sit there awake after eating chalky glucose tablets to make sure I don't die in my sleep before going back to bed. I feel sick and nauseous when my insulin went bad or my carb ratio is off and I get high blood sugar.
I am just so tired of doing it and to watch people do it for fun is really starting to irritate me.
(I am posting this to get it off my chest, I will not sit and stew on if after)
Labyrinth-like circulation, overlapping stairs, impossible balconies, and endless series of patios.

when someone’s flaws are not flaws in your eyes, you’re fucked.
