Q/A Diabetes and eating disorder

This is my very first Q/A about my Diabetes management and my eating disorder. This is a topic that is close to me and my heart thou I know that many T1D’s out there are struggling with for example anxiety. If you have Type 1 Diabetes it is twice as likely to develop an eating disorder than if you didn’t had Diabetes. I feel like no one is talking about this and there is a lack of education how to really know when a person have an unhealthy relationship with food, because food is a central part of a diabetics everyday life.

I know English is hard for me but I’m doing better! I will for sure do a part 2 if you would like to!

    I was invited to hear about research on type 1 diabetes (and type 2 diabetes) this weekend.

    As much as half of all cases, t1, are diagnosed in adulthood, and there is a need to understand the factors that contribute to the development of type 1 diabetes in adults. The lower heritability in adults suggests that environmental factors play a greater role in the development of the disease in adults than in children. They also highlighted the need for further research to identify environmental factors that contribute to type 1 diabetes in adults.

    And, of course, lots of important information on how to make transplanted beta cells survive 💙

    Someone told me that Diabetes is not a barrier but a different path that brings lessons on strength, resilience, and the significance of self care 💕
    Over the years, with many lows and highs - I’ve learned to not expecting everything to be perfect all the time.
