When you receive the news that you have diabetes type II, it is like a little death. You might have lived with it for a while, you might have in some case thought something was wrong with you, but it is still a shock to get the results from the doctor that your blood sugar is sky high and that you have diabetes.
90 to 95% of all diabetics have Diabetes type II. 7.8 % of the U.S population has diabetes. So don't feel alone!!
Several studies show that diabetic patients had already predisposition for depression and lived periods of depression post diagnostic.
A way to heal from this illness of the mind, is to understand that our actions have more effects than we think and that even though we do not have a full grab and/or control on the whole scheme of things we can improve our lives by doing the right things.
We are not aware of this but we conceive in our head lots of puzzles that we build piece by piece about every aspects of life; and we believe, through some rationalization process, that these schemes are the foundation of our lives and the reason that motivate our every step. We have to be able to blow these concepts of "how our life should be" easily so that we do not feel unbalanced when sometimes life throws us a curve ball...you have to love yourself plainly for the value of the life that has been given to you ...not for the concepts your ego comes up with.
Take the steps to evolve the best you can within this new life with diabetes. There are many testimonies of people getting rid of their diabetes, through a change of lifestyle.
Anxiety is probably a major factor that influences the blood sugar level, which can make you feel sluggish and irritable. It causes sleep disorder and a feeling of ineptitude and fear in taking action . External sources of anxiety can be: $$$ , divorce, work, family, health...learning to live every circumstance without focusing on the circumstances but on focusing on GOD, is the main shift to be done. You will not loose your energy, your love and your sanity if you do so. Learn to not configured your life around external or internal pressures and expectations that do not match with an healthy and pure life.
Forgive yourself as you will forgive others, give yourself time to implement a discipline in your everyday life that will decrease blood sugar levels and avoid major complications that comes with diabetes type II. Learn to focus on great dreams and cherish moment with the ones you love.
May God bless you,
Eric
