Hi r/diabetes! I am single and living with T1 diabetes. My sugars are very sensitive and I can get lows simply by having a nightmare. This has led to me usually keeping my sugars on the higher side of the spectrum. Long story short, I have been struggling to get my sugars to a normal level and never woke up this morning. I put together a safeguard with my colleagues, so that if I don't show up to the morning meetings at 8.30, they will call me, and if they can't reach me, they will phone my parents. Today I didn't show up, couldn't wake up when they phoned me, and it was first when my dad was banging on my front door that I managed to regain consciousness. He started crying from relief and me from the feeling of once again have no control over my own life.
I guess that what I'm trying to come to is if there are any other diabetics here, living alone, who can share some experiences or safe guards you have to cope?
