This is actually really inspiring for me to take more care of my T1 diabetes
Hope u are doing ok!
This is so so so upsetting. Not because he is diabetic but because if you really really stop and think about it half the T1D community does not get diabetes supplies.

People just think wow maybe you should eat less marsh mellows or less butter fingers. That is not it you dumb ass. It is called genetics.
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
Every great once in a while there are kids or adults that do not get the supplies they need.
T1 can suck sometimes but good!

You do not understand how ignorant doctors can be until you come to Missouri.
Please do take care of them I know they can be rubbish and I know that personally from the age of 1
Good on you. I've been a type 1 diabetic since 1977. It's hard work, you have so many issues to deal with. Not many people realise this. Keep well and safe. 😊👍👋
Do you have any complications now.
I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 2 weeks ago and i am 26
@@abdihalimyusufmohamed8903 Hya. I have diabetes retinopathy, but that's checked regularly. I can't really think of any other complications, but I have to have some test done,to check for possible nerve damage, through constant finger pricking to check my blood sugars. I use a FreeStyle Libre 2 now. But the years of caught up with me. Have to watch my diet and blood pressure. I have other underlying health issues, but over all,I think I've done pretty well. My advise, Listen to your diabetes care consultants and nurses. They are a Great help,especially if you have any questions you need answers. Also try joining a group with the same issues as us type ones. Take care. Hope I've helped you in some way. 🙂🙏XX
How old are you now?🤨
Ghost - I am not the author of this video, but, I’ve been Type 1 for 40 years. No complications so far. I’ve had some pretty bad scares with DKA, but overall have monitored my BS (pun intended) very closely. The key is to know your boundaries and keep everything within check. Exercise, watch your carb intake and stay vigilant to blood sugars (BS). It sucks, totally sucks, but it is doable. Wish you well.
@@siremmit7073 thank you it’s really helpful
I just got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 2 weeks ago when the doctor told me I had it. I was crying I was now my life has changed forever, but it’s fine. I will stay positive eat right and exercise and make sure I check my blood sugar levels 4 times a day.
For all the diabetic people out there you’re not alone stay positive and keep your head up 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

I know exactly how you feel. I was diagnosed just after my 6th birthday and it's been almost 12 years now. I hate having it but I guess I just have to get over it. Hopefully they'll find a cure soon but we have to remain positive until then. Thank you so much for sharing your story :)

11 years now, but still they can’t find a cure. I think they have already found a cure but its bad for their pocket
@@byrasulovI agree. Amazing a "cure" for covid in a 6 months, but nothing for diabetes all these years. Lost grandma, 2 uncles to diabetes my dad struggles with it. I keep myself checked.
Sam has such a good attitude. ❤ I hope he's still alive, he seems very kind
I got diagnosed with type 1 about three months ago at the age of 15 right after my birthday and so far it has gone very well with my first average blood sugar test at the hospital being about 6 mmol, i am so grateful for the Norwegian hospitals that made it so that us with diabetes get free sensors every two weeks and insulin. I will keep on living with diabetes and try to live a normal life despite my sickness, and pray that there will be a cure as soon as possible!

As a diabetic I hate when people say they would rather kill themselves than to inject insulin.... pisses me off

@silverbenson6805 diabetes is for life, type 1 and type 2.
You're handling it well! I was diagnosed when I was 1 and I'm now 13. I've had a few collapses (where I go seriously low) but now I got a brand new pump and I'm managing it better.
I was diagnosed a few weeks ago and I’ve just turned 13 so I can’t imagine how hard that could’ve been
Wow you're older than me now, the internet is weird
is it a Medtronic pump? they make great insulin pumps.
What is the brand of your pumps?
@@da14a49 oh wait that’s true!
I feel the same. Like if you take something out in class everyone will stare at you or ask what are you doing, when all you want to do is fix yourself.
DR OBELA HEALING HOME ON RUclips CURED ME TOTALLY
Sam you look good here, hope you are still doing well. I wasDiagnosed at 17, 43 now. The first 13 years were a disaster but I turned it around big time. It's still rough but being a type 1 made me stronger than I would have been otherwise.
Hi, You are a relatively recent comment. How long did you have symptoms for before you got diagnosed?
@@eleanorepell7842 I had symptoms of it going high about 3 years before diagnosis. Would feel tired and fall asleep in class. Hard time waking up. Couldn't focus at all. It was hard because I was being accused by school teachers of being on drugs and I wasn't! I had two lows when I was a child but they came and went.
That's our strength 👍
DR OBELA HEALING HOME ON RUclips CURED ME TOTALLY
Marvellous man. It’s a struggle just the same for me. I inject four times a day and I find it incredibly hard to get to a happy medium with my sugars especially when I’m quite active. The heat is tremendously hard to deal with but also during the cold weather, I struggle to stay at a suitable result. Up’s and down’s 😟. My heart goes out to those with type 1 diabetes like myself. Inspiring video mate, keep your sugars stable my friend.
Wish you the best

I have been type 1 for 33 years, have an 3 month average blood sugar of 127. I travel for my job 95% of the year and eat out every meal. It is all about choices and moderation and mixed with walking and light exercise. My weight is good my doctors(retired two at the place I go to) have all thought I was a bit thin for my height 6 foot and about 180 lbs. Couple of great things I appreciate: long acting insulin(balance), continuous glucose monitor(trends), insulin pens(easy to travel).
I totally understand you, Sam. ☺ To see the way we live daily is viewed as "gloomy". Truth is....it is. People think we get easily drunk, are lazy, like to "eat" abruptly , helpless, negative. We just view our beginning of each day as "a job" we didn't apply for. We gotta do, but we need more plans (as Sam said) to take place. Serious, yet comfortable is what we have to be. It is a hectic way to live. Sadly. We just make it interesting & worthy to teach others to be grateful for the small things in life taken for granted.....Thanks Sam.
Thank you for sharing your story Sam. My son is 16 and was diagnosed 1.5 years ago. It's been a great stress on our family and I worry all the time for Carter. I believe awareness is key. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Unfortunately some doctors do not care for the patient very well. I was actually born with Type 1 Diabetes but I was never ever given anything.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
A brain hemorrhage and a stroke that comes from T1D. It is sad but it does work like that. Sometimes children are not given the proper care or treatment. Sometimes there are doctors that do not like people who are mixed with black and white. At least that is what I went through and furthermore if a doctor ever says something like that they will probably die in prison.
I do a decent job of managing my diabetes but my life can be pretty disorganized and it's hard to manage around my friends and coworkers sometimes. I never minded the shots and pricks so much but the worst part is the constant worry and feeling like I can't have freedom and peace of mind like everyone else around me.
I understand it's a lifelong disease and that I need to see the positives and embrace it but I've had the disease for 10 years now and I just feel down sometimes that I can't always be there for my friends and loved ones. Also feel like the disease forces me to live a somewhat limited lifestyle and they probably don't really understand why
Totally agree with you there I'm living the same life it's so difficult always thinking yh can I go do that tho what if I have a bad hypo these people dnt no what to do ect ect I'm so depressed with it all I've had it 13 yrs now it sucks
Morgan Gilmore hi my bf recently (like few hours ago) just got diagnosed w T1 diabetes. Do you have any advice? He’s handling the news pretty bad. He is super worried and scared. And I dont know what to do beside just beijg there for him.
Morgan Gilmore thank you for your reply. May I ask what you mean by bad days? My family never dealt w T1 so I am not that educated on this.
Bored In the House when I first was diagnosed, my mom and I went to McDonalds and I remembered thinking, damn this is the last time I’ll ever be allowed to eat something like this.. it actually promoted healthy lifestyle changes for me. Soon I figured out that you can still eat anything you want it’s just a matter of calculating carbs and taking the right amount of insulin
Bored In the House it’s a complex and frustrating disease but be grateful, before insulin the diagnosis was a 100% death sentence
I'm 14 and I got diagnosed about a week ago. It's a lifestyle change and I have been very positive.

@@silverbenson6805no they didnt lol
I am also very lucky to be able to feel my blood sugar be too low or too high.
Type 1 for a month now. I was diagnosed through DKA and had to spend 3 days and 3 nights in hospital to recover. At first I was blood testing 6 times a day but now that I'm getting my freestyle libre I'm only really pricking once a day in the morning (unless I feel ill, which I did due to food poisoning recently, tested 6 times in an hour lol).
As for insulin injections, I do 4 a day and I used to suck at it, taking like 20 mins to do a single shot. Now it takes 2 mins tops. I've also gained back the stone of weight that I lost from DKA.
Things are looking up, blood sugars are healthy, averaging 6-7 mmol/L. Ketones finally at 0.0!! :)
And I'm getting the freestyle libre :D
@Noob man It sucks. I was 16, going on 17 when I got the betes. Now I'm 20.
Even though I can remember a time before this illness, I can't imagine a life without it. It becomes second nature.
@@ShintyShinto At least u lived without it man... You should appreciate that... I have t1d since I was 3...I haven't lived my life without it just take care of it man and be well
@@fatetaker4507 I'm grateful for that. It would've been tough on my mum having to manage my diabetes while working full-time and raising the rest of the family. Not to mention tough for myself. But having your whole life flipped upside down and never be the same again in the span of a check-up also brings its own set of challenges.
@Alicia Brown how many tablespoons of cinnamon did it take?
I few weeks ago I was diagnosed and it’s been pretty hard but I’ve put on a glucose monitor and it’s so much more easy, and thank you this was a nice video

Life is a curse and love and living everyday to the fullest doesn't matter. Or at least it doesn't matter for me. When I was younger several doctors were paid by my step brother Jacob to say things like I don't believe in Type 1 Diabetes. They were also paid by my real mother Ashley Wells...... so I got no diabetes supplies and I spent many many many months in the hospital having unnecessary brain surgeries.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Trust me it gets lonely as hell when you are in a hospital bed for over a month with tubes in your head. I was forced by several people that didn't like me to play something called Change the Game and I got ten genetic diseases all at once.

I’ve been diabetic for 19 years. I went through something called diabetic distress and went into a 14 A1C level. I was in a very dark place and felt really alone. This is just a message to anyone reading I’m now at a 7.4 a1c and it does get easier find someone that can help and push you in the right direction
You're not alone! Other Type 1 Diabetics know what you're dealing with. I, along with the others, are here for you. Cheer up guys! We should not let Diabetes control our lives. Apparently everyone needs to eat healthy and control their food portions, so what we have is not a 'disadvantage', we just need to be more careful than others without Diabetes.
Amen 💕

I am a type one survivor since I was 6 years old diagnosed after the gulf war and being a citizen of an occupied country now I am 37 years old and a father of 2 lovely girls which are the source of my pride and joy. Try to be thankful for what you have at least you have two caring parents which unfortunately I never had being the son of a narcissistic father who controls his wife but that didn't stop me from rising and being who I should be as a human being not to mention the challenges of life and how mean and evil some people can be, my sickness to me is not a reason to stand down and stop fighting day in and day out.
This is the pure meaning of life to survive and to overpower others around use what made you weak as a source to derive your strength and cut on drinking as it has no benefits what so ever I lived in the UK for a year and I know life there can be very hard and harsh but your mental and physical health should not be damaged or taken by your own will stand tall and fight to everyone out there fight for what is right!!

Type I diabetic here. I can relate. We look normal, but need to be cared for. Please care for your fellow man, be kind to one another. You never know.
I was diagnosed with type 1 roughly 5 months ago after almost losing my life in the hospital. I take 4 shots of insulin a day and have made major changes to my lifestyle. Still learning how to make it work. I quickly learned that the type community really sticks together. Good luck to everyone
I was diagnosed as type 1 diabetes in 2013,at that time I was running half marathons and weighing 9.5.
it's so unfair that people think I've brought this on myself.
the diabetic nurse said it shouldn't even be called the same as type 2 because it can't be helped.
my grandad had it years before I was born,now even though I'm married I feel no one understands how serious it is and how it effects you.
Well done for doing this video.
@OUlearn I have experienced everything you have except the people in my life were very curious and nice about it! I was diagnosed at 5 years old and am now 20. I had a best friend that was with me at a young age well when i was in 8th grade he magically got type one diabetes too! We now watch out for each other and almost everyone in my public school system is educated on the subject, students and teachers alike. They are very understanding!
Shoot man. I feel your pain. I'm 21 n Just got diagnosed 2 months ago. I was healthy my whole life. No family history nothing. Got the recessive gene. I'm very positive about the whole outcome. I didn't even know I had diabetes until I was so sick I went into the er n my sugar was 1400. I'm glad to be alive. Diabetic ketoacidosis is something you never wanna experience. Since then I'm healthy then ever. btw. Fuck what people say.

my cousin has type one diabetes. she’s 13 years old. going into 8th grade. I don’t know anything about diabetes and never have. right now, she’s in the hospital in a diabetic coma. the doctors think she’s brain dead and will not survive. she has so much time left, she hasn’t even made it through middle school. if anyone has experience with this, it would be amazing if you could tell me what happened.
I’m not religious, but if you are, our family is asking for prayers.
I remember my first two weeks. Best thing I can suggest it making sure you dont repress your emotions. In the end those have been what is worst about diabetes. I have had it for three years now

I had type1 diabetes since age 8 yrs old and now after 30 yrs and I am a working mum to three children well settled and highly trained professional. As long as you never miss insulin right dosage and know to manage your hypos its doesnt affect your life and career. You have to put your health your priority and be straight in school or at work about your medical condition and have no shame instead have pride that you can manage this challenge. Keep yourself fit through exercise and always have zero sugar in your diet and low carbs. Best option eat little but at 2 hrs of difference and test atleast 5 times a day. CGM with insulin pump is the best tool you can have for second by second glucose monitoring Always aim at HBA1c less than 6.9. Alhamdullah it s Allah who helps us all

Yes it is expensive to maintain yourself, and there usually is no support for adults to maintain the pump. As i have seen from my friends, the pump does not change anything. As i see it it actually constricts you. With the pump you are always attached to a device. Me myself 12 years of diabetes prefer the PEN's.

I am type 1 diabetic which I got at the age of 34 but over the last 7 weeks I have found a whole food product called F21 which blocks sugar from being absorbed into our bodies.

I was told I am type 1 diabetic when I was 18 and now 32, the dr said I am not type 1, I'm type 2 diabetic as my antibody test was negative. Why did they decide to check a antibody test after 13 years? Because I wanted the libra flash monitoring and they now came to realisation that I need to get a test to confirm if I am type 1 or not, absolutely pathetic.

This month (July 2023) I have had type 1 diabetes for 40 years. I was diagnosed at age 12 in 1983. So far, my diabetes is still considered "uncomplicated". Eye health and kidney health are both still as they should be. What this video (and most people) fail to mention is that there is ALWAYS depression with chronic illnesses, without exception, 100% of the time. In time, the depression will need to be treated too. Also, diabetes is an "invisible disease" most of the time, so in addition to people who care trying to police what they see you eat (when they should mind their own business), there are also people who think you are pretending to be ill when you are not. Most of the time if you need hospitalization for any reason, the medical staff knows next to nothing about diabetes management -- so demand an endocrinologist for extended hospital stays if they prevent you from caring for your diabetes yourself.
Thanks for sharing Sam! I like how you are real about how you manage it that it's not always testing every time. You speak a lot of truths that I feel also. I know thats me too !! I was diagnosed at 20 (on the eve of my 21st bday) so this november is 3 years. I'm on the pump and it's made my life so much easier than when I was on injections...lantus hated me lol nova rapid is my best friend now :) and my pump :)

I have just completed a DAFNE course & am on an insulin pump now, but what DAFNE does teach you is that you can live a normal life & eat when you like & skip meals if you like, just the same as people without diabetes would, as all we T1's are doing either through MDI or pump is the same as what a person without diabetes would do naturally through there pancreas/liver

I recall (also as a Type 1) someone calling me out saying ‘he looks like a diabetic’. Correct, I thought. And you are evidently a detective. It’s very tiresome, but you keep our spirits up, I hope you are well to this day.
HI I'm a type 1 diabetic and I've struggled for 13 years with it and have ended up in hospital with DKA many times and I've experienced the same reactions off the nhs staff they assume I've been drinking alcohol and I've felt like I've been told off by them for not managing my diabetes properly when really it's very difficult I hypo almost daily if not then the day after I can honestly say I've never dun a full week with out having a hypo so now I'm feeling the complications from this and I'm in so much pain all the time in my legs and feet with diabetic neuropathy and restless legs syndrome and depression and anxiety about going places and having a hypo life really sucks and the dwp dnt care and say I'm fit and carnt claim disability when it is a disability for me now at this level just because others arnt the same doesn't mean I'm not it's really difficult
I was diagnosed when I was 13 and how I found out was I got really bad sick but after 3 days I went to the ER where they found out that my blood sugar was 1500
i have to disagree with you... my C-peptide was O for 47 years...i have documentation that shows i am now producing insulin and my A1c is a 6.... i was on 70 units a day... NOW 10 units a day... when i start my exercise program i believe i will be able to get off insulin all together...
the only change i made a year ago was changing over to a RAW-VEGAN diet... that means NO: meat, dairy, nothing from a can, box, jar or pasteurized...
only RAW: fruits, veggies, nuts and seeds... I am reversingT1
Really?

Then read about how grains cause intestinal permeability with Dr Peter Osborne.
And the NEJM 2008 study "preventing type 1 diabetes in infancy": the cause is 4 components: Grains Bovine, chromium vanadium deficiency and genetic predisposition.. eliminate the cause and your body will do what it is designed to do: Heal

I've been T1 since 1985. Been on a pump since the early 1990s and a CGM since 2018. My CGM has been life changing, but I also know this condition sucks.
Type 1 for 10 yrs now almost 11 and I have an insulin pump
Has it been very hard to adapt to?
@F not really, it’s definitely a lot easier than stabbing myself every day
This young man is a very strong person
I was diagnosed when I was 9 it was hard to change from normal to a diabetic

I was diagnosed at an early age too, 9 years old, and I've lived with diabetes now for 22 years. People that make fun of you aren't good people. Being a diabetic makes you mature faster than others, so just know that even though it's not fair, you are more grown up than they are. They don't have the courage that we diabetics have to test our blood sugars and inject insulin everyday. We aren't different from anyone else because of diabetes, it just makes us diabetics unique.

But most of the diet programs are so strict and difficult to stick to. If you'd prefer a simpler solution to take control of your cholesterol, know more here:

I have type 1 diabetes and I don't understand why you can't miss breakfast. I heard from many people with diabetes that we must eat minimum 3 times a day. Can someone explain why. For example I can go all day without eating. You just gove yourself 1 or 2 units of insulin on empty stomach depends on your insulin sensitivity
You can miss breakfast if you want to. You simply don't take any fast-acting insulin. The basal insulin (time release, slow acting) will cover you in the meantime.
sam.. confused by you "rubbish" comment...what are you referring to..?
i am reversing my T1 diabetes through a raw/vegan diet... i was told by doctors that my condition would only get worse... now all of my doctors are unable to explain why i only use 10 units a day, and why my c-peptide is showing that my body is producing insulin after 47 years on insulin...
i don't think doctors are well educated in nutrition...research RAW-VEGAN diet in conjunction with reversing T1.. 500 have reversed T1
pumps just don't get dished out in the UK.The NHS have a budget and unless u've got very bad control don't think they precribe it for u.Even with my strips I get problems getting a decent meter cos of the price of strips
