Hey people!
My name is Cristiana and I'm 27 - I've been riding the rollercoaster of the 'betes now for 16 years.
My fiancé told me to explore the world of forums because it's something i've never really participated in. Up until about two years ago I was very reserved about my diabetes and I hid it from most of my friends and kept it on the down low in front of family members. As i'm sure you can all imagine this did not put me in a very great place!
I found the DOC (diabetic online community) on instagram and i've not looked back since! I created a page where I could vent, share and talk about my experience with living with type one diabetes and it has completely changed my life! If you're interested in checking it find me on insta @t1diabetica - if you do follow me tell me that you've come from here! That would be cool !
I can only hope that my page and my voice brings someone else the courage and joy it has brought me in finding confidence with my type one diabetes.
I'm getting a pump soon!!! I'm nervous and scared and that's probably why I'm rambling alot! I chose the omnipod so if there are any pro's on here I may be posting alot of questions! I will probably be documenting my change on my YouTube channel so if there are any people dubious or scared not knowing what to expect when going from a lifetime of pens to a first pump this might be something interesting! My channel is called T1diabeticaTalks....please subscribe and say hi!
