But don't get me wrong, I know I do have a problem and need to stop. I cave under pressure though. Full on people pleaser.
I think that's the reason a lot of people don't seek help. Diabetes is a disease, cancer is a disease, and what we have is a disease. Until society realizes and recognizes this as a disease it will always be taboo. You just have to have the strength and courage to admit that you're powerless over your disease.
