    Is your Diabetes getting you down? 

    Practical tips for managing your emotional wellbeing  

    Is looking after your diabetes getting you down? Do you spend too much of your day worrying about your diabetes? Is so, you're not alone.   

    This pilot programme is to help people with type 1 diabetes understand some of the emotions they may be feeling and offer support and guidance to help think of things in different ways. It contains sections on: 

    • How to humanise and normalise the diabetes experience
    • How to think more positively
    • Setting a goal and making a plan
    • Finding support

    Facilitated by an experienced Credentialed Diabetes Educator and Psychologist, the session is designed for people just like you who understand what it's like to live with type 1 diabetes. 

    As the program is in its pilot phase, we are looking for people who are willing to give us honest feedback on what you did and didn't like and how we can improve the program for others.
