This is a remarkably self-selecting newsgroup. Almost everyone (maybe everyone) here has decided to take control of their condition and do the testing they feel necessary.
At the same time, the vast majority of people here have only had diabetes for a few months to a few years.
I've been at this a quarter century (and am still a young'un compared to lots). I've slipped into what could probably be clinically described as depression a couple times over those 25 years, and a couple times ended up in the hospital as a result of depression making it difficult to do the 4-8 times daily things like testing and taking my shots and eating my food. The one sentence quoted above is a large part of this depression (although testing by no means is the only element that leads to it, there are enough other difficulties in anyone's life).
Getting formal help for this depression is far from automatic. In some ways, this newsgroup is for support to prevent/help with this sort of thing, at least as I use it. So, while it's great to come here and see lots of self-motivated people as a way to keep me going, sometimes my personal condition and the statements in this newsgroup interact to make me either angry, sad, etc. It's probably better to get angry at a bunch of self-selecting self-righteous newbies who've never had any real difficulties than it is for me to get depressed, at least :-).

I was so depressed 2 months ago that I did a foolish thing, at least others think it was foolish. I tried to end my life, at the time life was not worth living and I could not see any hope of it ever getting any better.
I had read about a diabetic that did it by over injection insulin. I injected my whole pen of Homolog all at once, it took 5-6 injections. I was saved because my mother heard me, I was shaking all over and knocking things over in my bathroom. I was in the hospital for 5 days then went to another hospital for mental evaluation. Now I have to go to therapy 3 times a week, that is the only time I am allowed out of the house. They put a survalance camera in my room and I am not allowed to keep my own insulin.
I can not say if I will ever do it again, my health problems are severe and will be with me forever.

Health Solutions - 24 Nov 2006 13:34 GMT Hi Everyone,
Want relief from dipression. Depression may be described as feeling sad, blue, unhappy, miserable, or down in the dumps. Most of us feel this way at one time or another for short periods. I read some solution for depression at http://medical-health-care-information.com/encyclopedia/D/Depression.asp
It might be beneficial to you.

Depression may be described as feeling > sad, blue, unhappy, miserable, or down in the dumps. Most of us feel > this way at one time or another for short periods. Many folks when feeling down in the dumps (but not really into full clinical depression) will not eat for a day or put off some necessary actions for a day.
Thing is, for a non-diabetic, not eating for a day or not taking medication for a day probably is not a big deal.
For a Type 1, not eating or not taking medication will probably end up putting us into extreme hypo or into DKA possibly in much much less than a day.
So it doesn't really take full-blown clinical depression to have major health impacts. Just being tired or sad or having a common cold or flu that makes us tired enough that we don't do all the things we're supposed to do, is enough to upset the delicate balance and send us down a slippery slope where we just don't want to do it anymore.
I am certainly not into that mode now, but I have been in that mode a few times in the past 25 years. And that quote from the paper that others were mocking really should not be mocked: the stress of just knowing that I had to test multiple times a day, over and above all the other stresses, really has been the straw that broke the camel's back at least once in the past 25 years.

shoppa@trailing-edge.com - 24 Nov 2006 16:15 GMT > If you get depressed and can not shake it, get some help. Madison,
At least once or twice over the past quarter century I've thought about dong what you did, not so much to end it all but instead as a plea for help. Of course it doesn't make much sense as a plea for help (which is part of why I didn't do it) but really it is hard to find help sometimes.
One thing that has helped me over the years, and probably prevented me from going into depression/refusal to do it all at least a couple times, is helping others.
When I was younger and in college, I happened to be going to the same school that was associated with the hospital that had taught me all I knew and was on good terms with the doctors/nurse-educators who worked with diabetics. They would sometimes call me in when they needed a "good example" to help others deal with their problems. Being a "good example" really did help me keep on top of everything at the time.
alt.support.diabetes sometimes serves this purpose, even if people are here making complaints about minor things, it is better to talk about it than to let it all the pressure build up. I hope that we can help you here, and that by helping you and others that we all really do build up some of our own personal resources.
Maybe I'm being over-optimistic but it's better than being pessimistic.

: Madison Madison,
I suspected as much when we did not hear from you for such a long time. Glad you are back home and, hopefully , on the mend. Things should look up as your insides heal form the Celiac damage and you can enjoy more foods and things in life without getting sick to your stomach all the time.
You are lucky your parents have made it possible for you to have a second chance at growing up and living a full life. Giving time, you may well be very happy to be here in the world and the grief over your health conditions will pass and just become part of you, like hair color or body shape or gender. I have known peope who have tried wh tyou did and lived to have happy, fullfilling lives, adjusting to their limitions. It is not easy, and I dont want to be glip about it, bu tdo hang in there and tings should get better.
You are a very special person to all of us in this group and we are all pulling for you. Please keep in touch and let us know how you are doing, and let us be an ear for you.

Having gone through a terrible bout of depression myself about the time you were born, I know just how low a person can get when they "know" their whole world is collapsing on top of them. The important thing is that you mom did find you and took positive action to save you life. I don't know if you believe in karma or not, but you may have been saved so you will be around to reach out to someone else and share your experiences in order to save them.
You have a large newsgroup family here that has come to love you since you first posted. We want the very best for you and you are in our prayers constantly.
Take care and continue to post so we know how you are.

If you believe in karma, after suicide the soul will return to the exact evolutionary point that existed at the moment of suicide, at which time the still-existing karmic entanglements must again be faced and resolved. In short, for a Buddhist, suicide would solve nothing.
In a time of extreme depression, I attempted suicide twice. I spent a long time in therapy and on Prozac. I finally come to realize that I must face life no matter what it brings. If I had succeeded in my attempts, I would have missed the joys of motherhood and the new life that is unfolding for me.

Andrew, you of all folks should know that there is a *biological* link between diabetes, Cushings, menopause and peri-menopause, heart disease, and Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, etc., and depression.
The depression is *not* always reactive to the illness.
You should now that the high output of cortisol makes 90% of Cushngs patients develop clinical depression. You should also know that diabetes and depression go hand in hand because of the blood sugar irregularities; you should also know that women nearing menopause develop hormonal imbalances or sensitivities to such imbalances that are linked to low production serotonin the brain, etc., etc.
Depression is *not* always, and hardly ever, rooted in one's spirituality or one's "thinking patterns."Chritians of all denominations develop these disorders at the same rate as non-Christians.
By the way, Bipolar illness and depression was identified as far back as the ancients scholars. You are making all diseases spiritual in origin. They are not.

Nor is Madison anywhere near being menopausal. As for blood sugar irregularities, she has been doing an awesome job thanks to the support from the regulars at ASD of regulating her blood glucose.

Cary Kittrell - 28 Nov 2006 18:55 GMT > > ..........serotonin deficiency....... > > Now, I know you are not a doctor at all. A friend of mine who objected to the latest nutriceutical fad, the one for a serotonin precursor, on the basis that the precursor would not cross the blood-brain barrier, was told that the brain was not the whole story, because "you have to consider the spirit". Apparently this precursor molecule can cross the blood-spirit barrier. Or something.
You don't think that there are in fact some out there who, although holding medical degrees, will solemnly tell you similarly silly things?
(considering that the GI tract has far more serotonin receptors than the brain, and there's no blood-gut barrier: one must wonder what effect such an influx of serotonin will have on the complex feedback system that is the digestive tract)

Not in the UK. Medicine here has to be practised strictly in accordance with evidence based best practice. Anybody making such an assertion would find themselves having to explain their conduct to the GMC, who would certainly bar them from practising in the mental health sector, and would consider striking them off.

> Why is that, do you suppose? Well, duh. Antidepressants also help the majority of depressed people. Others benefit from a combinations of medications. They *do* work. Andrew of all people who know that there are multitudes of drugs, food preservatives/hormones, etc., that can wreak havoc on the brain.
This is the problem with my fellow Evangelicals--they separate the brain from the rest of the body, and call the brain a "spiritual organ." If there's anything wrong with brain function, be it depression, anxiety disorders, OCD, Parkinson's, dementia, then someone with such disorders has a "spiritual" problem, not a physical problem.
Sadly, the people who opposed the development of aspirin for pain relief were Christians.
Please do not think that all Christians think like Andrew.

Oh, hey, I no more suspect that all Christians think like Andrew than I suspect that all Quakers are like Richard Nixon. I was raised by Christians, surrounded by Christians, and several of the people I now admire most earned that admiration precisely because of lives guided by Christ's teachings -- the more dificult of Christ's teachings, those demanding self-sacrifice and care for others.
I would also guess that the reaction of most of my Christian friends to Andrew's pronouncements would likely be exactly the same as yours.

Hey, I bet that not only are you right about that, it also works in the other direction! Clearly, the intense eupohria induced by heroin must be working via the morphine-receptor/spirit channel to bring transcendence to the impoverished soul, and MDMA acts through the dopamine-spirit and serotonin-spirit channels to instruct the shriveled spirit in empathy and nurturing.

In truth, she has not met me. She has not seen me. Nor have I seen her.
The unconditional love that I have for her sight unseen has been possible via Christ Jesus' love in my heart.

I guess it is my fault for responding to one of his posts. Lucky for me that he does not know my real last name. I do not know why he thinks it is Satonos, except my yahoo email address is madison_sato@yahoo.com. The sato part was added to make it unique, after just madison was already taken and sato is the name of family members in Hawaii.
Yesterday was my big day, I go to therapy on M-W-F and the doctors on Wednesday. At the doctor yesterday they said I was improving, I am not too excited, it goes in cycles - I get a little better then a little worse. They credit my improvement my strict diet, I have been eating only brown rice, steamed chicken breast and specially prepared carrots. I can drink only water. I take a lot of supplements and get injections and sometimes IV's to correct my electrolytes. In the last year I have lost 20 pounds but it is stable for now.

And, somehow I don't find it odd that 'the poster who I shall not name' made an assumption! I have him filtered out & I still at times spend half my time here deleting posts where he shows up in people's replies.

From your picture it certainly didnt look like you needed to lose anything. best thing to take your mind off things is by talking to people that have similar interests. like music and movies lol i thought i would have more to add to that list. I watch a few movies on pay per view now and then. my wife and i have totally different tastes so we hardly ever go out to the movies. before i became diabetic we would eat out just about every meal. over time everything will become so much easier.

It is made from medium grain brown rice that is germinated, before cooking, to activate it. See this site: http://www.abc.net.au/science/news/stories/s225249.htm I make it because we like the flavor and texture better than regular brown rice, the health benefits are a plus.
I have a rice maker that has a GABA brown rice cycle but it only soaks the rice for 2 hours. I like to soak it for 12-16 hours to develop the best flavor and texture. This can easily be done by placing the rice pot in the oven at 100 degrees. After activation, I give the rice a final rice and cook it in the rice maker.

I have been researching GABA rice on the internet, there is some information but not much. At least it gave me something to do.

That would be a lot easier, I don't think our oven can be set to 100 degrees. Before I can try it Mom will ask my doctor if it is ok.

Madison. When you came back from Hawaii this last time I asked you if you had had tummy problems when staying there. Did you? I only ask because child has a celiac-like problem. He lives on rice, freshly cooked meats (never reheated meats) and a few small choices of other foods. When he went to Portugal for a month he ate anything and everything and had not a single episode of violent cramps, bloody diarrhoea, headaches etc. As soon as he came back home he started with the problems again. Agriculture is different in Portugal and things like chickens etc are killed at home, home bred chickens. Just curious.

Our beagle and basset kind of turn up their noses at them and decide to go ahead and eat them anyway.
I keep a small ziplock bag of baby carrots in the drawer of my end table to munch on in order to stay away from the higher carb snacks. With less than one gram of carbs and all that fiber I figure they are about as close as I can get to a no cal/no carb snack as I can get other then celery sticks.

[quoted text clipped - 18 lines] >> >>Grandpa Chuck My granddaughter and great-granddaughter has been living with me for over a year since she dumped her husband. She brought her beastly little Pekingese with her. She feeds him Natural Balance ultra premium dog food. According to the label, it is made with "fresh chicken, fresh duck, fresh carrots, fresh potatoes, lamb meal, oatmeal, brown rice, flax seed, pearled barley, grapeseed oil." He eats it down as in about 30 seconds and judging from his frisky nature seems to thrive on it.
With this diet, that dog is probably healthier than 90% of the people in the US.

[quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > >Anon That sounds so darned good that I am surprised you haven't bought some to try yourself. I have mentioned before that our dogs only eat once a day and then just the amount of IAMs recommended for their ideal weight. If only I get to like dry dog food I could be at my ideal weight and have good numbers in the bargain.

Mom gets organic chicken breasts and steams it without the skin in a steamer. I am allowed only a little salt, no pepper or other seasonings.
Mom said the reason for peeling and soaking the carrots is to remove as much as possible pesticides and chemicals because I might be sensitive to them.

If you are sensitive to pesticides and fertilizers, it would be wiser for your mom to get organically grown vegetables because no amount of soaking will get rid of such chemicals.
May GOD continue to heal our hearts with HIS living water so that we can love others a little bit more, dear sister Madison whom I love unconditionally.
Prayerfully in Christ's amazing love,
