Depression & Diabetes - Not a good mix!

Hi I am a 48yr old woman who was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 1 yr ago.

At first I was "good" & made changes to my diet, got more exersise, got the thingy to test my bood sugar..etc etc..

That lasted about 3 months!

Trouble is I am also being treated for depression and it has steadily affected the way I look at myself!

I just don't seem to be able to care anymore....

My Doc has said that she cannot force me to do what is neccesary & with my blessing has decided that she will provide a support role only until I tell her differently! Poor woman!

Anyway that is all.

Thanks for reading!
