However, with the right support and resources, it's possible to manage your diabetes effectively. Please know that you're not alone, and our community is here to listen and support you:

Hello Powerbeets! I am here and I am sorry too. I've had it for years...ignored it, denied it, faced it, failed...and now coming around and facing it again. It's very hard in the beginning. I'm here if you want to talk...or just vent. I will say you have a advantage over me because you are a chef. I never enjoyed cooking and was never good at it. I can't go into a kitchen and just whip something up. I have no idea what herb will make something taste better. I'm learning but I'm guess you have that knowledge. Hang in there!

To anyone out there, I don’t know who to turn to. I’m a chef and I was diagnosed with diabetes recently. I can’t stop crying and I have never felt this isolated and alone before. So even if it’s just one person out there, please it would mean the world to me to just have one friend to talk to about this. Please, I’m so scared and exhausted from everything.
