diabetic friends?

we have many friends and many of our loved ones are diabetic and most of the times we don't know how to react to what they say and do, since I myself am a diabetic and undergo the pain of picking myself several times I would help you understand how to keep your loved one happy and help him deal his journey in managing diabetes here are few steps
Step 1: spread my blog
haha!! just kidding pals btw if u wanna do then just click at the bottom of the page which says share me

now what you actually need to first

how to react?


overrated, bad idea to ask these questions
Most of the time you say ooh really????? I am sorry ( actually don't be !! it sounds like I a suffering with cancer and I am going to die in next few hours)
just act normal and use phrase like "oh that's okay you know many of our film stars are diabetic it's common and it can be controlled " (now that sounds diplomatic and little motivating) first things first you need to motivate them, he is already depressed and probably worried that he can't have food of his choice

here this picture has all the most overrated questions asked to diabetics most of the time please don't do these if you really care.

How to manage if he/she is pissed


"Bear with us"
There are many instances when our blood sugar levels are high and low and that irritates us and at this time we are no less ferocious, so just be polite and have a habit of forgiving us because we already deal much and believe me we won't be able to deal with a hear-break if we lose a good friend of our just because of few minutes of anger so bear with us :)
actually it is very difficult to bear us and understand why we are angry or pissed at anything it is just irritating when we feel hungry or when we suffer from hypo and its very, there are instances when then family members of the sufferer don't understand and its hear-breaking sometimes so if you are a friend try t understand and in case you are the sufferer just try to be calm and talk less as we usually don't know where we may shout on anyone


if you really care about a diabetic just understand their food habits better and don't criticize them for not having food like you consume just to support their decision and like it is said, a good friend always cares so just understand what he can eat and what he can't just see my page on diet and ayurvedic supplements,

How to manage his hypo state
assuming that you already know what hypoglycemia is ill continue with how to manage, don't worry if you don't know just read my article about Hypoglycemia

here are few tips if you find your friend in the situation of hypo

  1. ask him if he keeps candies with him, find and feed him candies, there are instances that he might get so low that he may be incapable of even opening the candy from its plastic wrapping, no matter how strong he is, happens to me all the times.
  2.  if he is with you at sleep overs then make him understand that it's okay to wake you up if he feels low in the middle of night, there are many instances when one may feel low and get-up at night, usually happens if the dinner he had was less than his body requirements or if he has injected more than regular amount of insulin that regular.
what ever the case is guys if you love and care for your diabetic friend let him know that it's okay and it's not his fault, he can trust you, it's very important to build trust with him only then he will be more comfortable around you, which means you will be able to take care of him in a better way


♥ spread love ♥
