Type 1 Diabetes memes: the bad

Last time I talked about the good memes, the kind of ones that keep me happy.

Now for the bad. These are the guilty pleasures associated with type 1 diabetes.

Here in 3rd. A guilty pleasure us type 1's can enjoy - calling out someone on being a wimp with injections. Best response to someone complaining about getting injections ever. Well, apart from telling someone that "its never bothered them having a tiny prick before" - i'm sure there's a female equivalent too. Also, injecting in front of someone who doesn't know about your condition - priceless.

Every type 1 has had one of those conversations where its like banging your head against a brick wall explaining diabetes, or the difference between type 1 and type 2.
Worst (and most terrifying ) question I have ever heard: "so if you're low and pass out I have to inject you with insulin" NO, NO A THOUSAND TIMES NO.

I thought that I couldn't be the only person that had ever done this and I was right. Unfortunately mine was on an essay I had to hand in there and then or lose a grade. I was going to joke it up to the lecturer as a kind of 'you should give me a good mark or I'll bleed you' but I don't think she would have appreciated that. Wow that came out darker than expected.

I am much tidier now when I test my Blood glucose thankfully











So there we have it, the bad - guilty pleasure type 1 memes that i discovered today. Next in line, the Ugly, and a ranting Sam.
