- #TheOne campaign is all about sharing those moments we all go through when it comes to intimacy, dating and relationships with type 1 diabetes.
Those awkward moments when it feels like type 1 just keeps getting in the way. Hypos in the heat of the moment. Insulin pump tangles. Plans screwed up to rush home to get insulin.
And those moments that come with meeting someone who is there for you through all the ups and downs.

i have had some crazy embarrassing and scary experiences when it comes to sex and my diabetes. Thank God I found someone who really gets it
What happens with women? My husbands diabetic and I know how he is when it comes to sex but in women how is it? Is it true it hurts?
I just wish I had someone who understood.. truly.
Hello
@@Flufiesmidnight Hi there
I recently met a man we had a date and it is a match. But he told me he has diabetes type 1. I never knew someone with diabetes. So now i am doing research about it. When we were intimate he told me he cant have a hard one. And somehow it dont bother me. I excepted it. This is so new to me i am still figuring out why it dont bother me. He really make sure that i am ok. Also he is affraid that i will leave him for another.
Wow u are a good woman
@@mikeyg9833 thank you🙏🏽. It sounds strange also for myself but it dont bother me at all. But still everything is new for me amd i need to give it a place that i dont want the " bad" feeling to take it over some day.
@@Annie-to8ef My advice and I don't want to sound mean. Leave him😔 right now it's ok for you because you don't know what you're getting yourself into. Put yourself first, sex it's important in a relationship. I used to think like you.😢
@@Flufiesmidnight i understand what you mean and you are right.🥹
@@Annie-to8ef Hello Annie... how's everything going?
Thnks to share other your personal life (Clarity is always impotant in any human society،But human morality must be observed،So that we do not become like animals)
I’d love to see a video about this with couples where the one with Type 1 diabetes is the one struggling with depression and what helps. I’ve read so much about how Type 1 can cause depression but not how to help it.
Hi Dawn, we do have some information for those living with diabetes and depression and ways to manage it: bit.ly/3ubfwha. We do also have some trained counsellors on our helpline who are always willing to help anyone who it. Feel free to give us a call on
0345123 2399 or email us at helpline@diabetes.org.uk 💙
@@diabetesuk Thank you. My friend is quite remarkable in that he’s remained a competitive swimmer and exercises/lifts weights regularly despite being legally blind from a stroke (unrelated blood disorder). He teaches in a high school in a challenging but rewarding job. He eats a diet of whole, unprocessed foods. He has a supportive and loving family. He’s seen mental health professionals and tried several antidepressants and hormone replacement therapy (some have helped), but the depression still comes in overwhelming waves which at times are quite severe.
What about type 2 diabetes ? My fiancé has it. Does it mean, he also can pass it to his future kid ? Whats the difference with type 1 and type 2?
Im a type 1. Diagnosed wgen i was 2. Im 24 and lately I've been having alot of issues with what i think is E.D. i always go limp in the middle of sex and its definitely embarrassing but I've learned to be comfortable and accepting of my health condition and its worth noting that my a1C is 6.2. That is lower than its EVER been and i am more healthy than i have ever been but despite that im starting to have all these diabetic side effects. I already have full on nurapathy and have a nerve stimulator in my back and now this is happening like wtf lmao
Having Diabetes is not funny
My dick don't go hard with dianetes
you must have never seen South Park!!
When did they say it was funny?
Yes it's absolute disaster
Extremely
what does managing it look like? Like how often does the average healthy type 1 diabetic go low a day? My boyfriend has type 1 and he goes low over half of the times we hang out (we usually hang out before dinner) I’m not sure if that’s him taking care of himself and that is just his daily rhythm before he eats his biggest meal or if he’s not managing it well.
What does it look like being the girlfriend? What are my responsibilities?
Hi Brianna, the answer to your question depends on what sort of medical devices he has. I use a insulin pump and CGM so I haven't gone low in months (pretty much since I got it). If your bf is using MDI or doesnt have a CGM its totally possible to go low more often. That said, if someone has extreme self discipline, they can totally avoid ever going low by reducing the number of carbs they eat significantly.
My gf cooks occasionally and there are a few foods which I totally avoid: any rice, any noodles, pizza. These foods arent worth the pain of dosing insulin for them. Good luck
Can I marry a girl who is Type 1 Diabetic? What compliments it could bring to married life? And can type 1 diabetic women become pregnant and give birth to healthy kids?
1. You can marry someone who is type 1 diabetic they are the same as everyone else but just with a condition. 2. The same as any other marriage the diabetes is just a small part of the diabetics life and they are still capable of doing what any one else can do. 3. And yes diabetics can get pregnant and give birth to a healthy baby. There is more of a chance the baby might develop type 1 diabetes but that is the case with anyone on this earth. :)
1. If you want to say bye-bye to your normal life Marry her , 2 there is 75% that their kids will have it do you really want your kids to suffer for your love life You’re Decision, 3- no there is big difference I have experience thos who say (there is no difference between who have it and don’t thos are having it thereself I don’t want any one to misunderstand this it is a big thing they get tired,lazy, easily, some of them get angry cuz of there less suger in there blood .
@@silencc778 you just sounded really dumb and uneducated, it isn’t a difficult disease to live with. It’s actually really easy to manage. Any children born on earth by anyone has a chance of developing T1D. And you don’t suffer, it is just a small thing you have to deal with.
@@silencc778 bro is see you every coment tho I just broke up with my my type 1 diabetic girlfriend and I'm stressed tho what's your opinion? 😢
@@silencc778 Are all non-diabetics like you nasty and judgemental then seeing as we are on the topic of tarring everyone with a condition with the same brush?
Fairly shocked at most of the comments here.
I have got type 1 Diabetes I am so piss of with it now
GET WELL SOON SIR
@@maverick9683 you can't get better from type 1 diabetes. Type 2 you can get better from by living a healthier lifestyle and a better diet but type 1 is a thing you are born with and are not in control if.
@@maverick9683 Loool
@@leah_w- can you give number
Are they all newly met or they scared of having kids especially who have type one ... perhaps they don't want their children to appear on the program????
I'm sorry you all seem to do strong
Is there anyone watching this from Nepal...I want to talk
Hi, if you need support and would like to speak to someone in Nepali, please ring us on 0345 123 2399 and request our translator service. We will then call you back with a Nepali translator to assist. Alternatively, feel free to contact the Nepal Diabetes Association here: idf.org/our-network/regions-and-members/south-east-asia/members/nepal/nepal-diabetes-association/
Let’s be honest here guys I have experience and thos have this disease aren’t livening like thos how doesn’t have, idk why some ppl ask and they answer ( no no there is no difference) I’m not saying who have it doesn’t have a life no. What I’m trying to say is before u go to a relationship with them u have to know, u have to take care of them be understand in hard situations cuz there is a chance ur kid will have it , they will be more likely get lazy, tired, sleepy so if u “going out type” just know it ,and some of them get angry when less suger is in there blood (forget to eat thire medicine) , and it will be ur dictation to make if u want ur kids to suffer for ur love life.
If you manage your diabetes type 1 there is no problem, I got 2 healthy kids
@@annm3481 yeah, it isn’t a difficult thing, children don’t 100% get T1D and even if they did, you don’t suffer with type 1 it is just something else to deal with.
You are obviously inexperienced with this disease. 1. We don’t suffer , it is just something we deal with 2. All children born ever have a chance of developing type 1 3. We don’t have to think of it as not living our life to the fullest because we have type 1, we are the same as everyone else except we have something small to take care of (also if you don’t have type 1 don’t speak for everyone else who actually does)
@@annm3481 what does managing it look like? Like how often does the average healthy type 1 diabetic go low a day? My boyfriend has type 1 and he goes low over half of the times we hang out (we usually hang out before dinner) I’m not sure if that’s him taking care of himself and that is just his daily rhythm before he eats his biggest meal or if he’s not managing it well.
@@briannaclark5479 it means check your bloodsugar as often as possible. I have a sensor, so I hold my phone in front of it and it shows me if my bloodsugar is going up or down or just stable. It means take care of your health. Know how many carbs the food have that you eat. I am married but I do not expect my husband to do everything. I take care of myself and when I go low when I am out, I make sure I have for example dextro energy tablets with me. This helps to rise the bloodsugar. In the end its all about knowing your body and taking care of it.
Just curious. Do any of you other T1 diabetics have a high sex drive?
I doubt it
Yes, I think I have. No problems with erection and sometimes three times a day with my wife is just a regular thing.
@@RedPetrol76 My husband is 39 and I'm 31 yo. He is now not having a full erection I mean it gets hard but now like he used to and also he is not ejaculating he tells me he feels like hes ejaculating but nothing comes out😔😐
@@silencc778 if u ain’t diabetic then don’t answer
Yes
