The One Thing Diabetes Took from Me… Until I Took It Back!
I’m Eleanor
Like many others, my journey began typically. The years passed, energy waned, but my passion for spending time with my grandchildren remained unwavering.
However, Type 2 Diabetes silently crept in, gradually diminishing my vitality.
Initially, it was the usual signs—constant fatigue, unrelenting thirst, frequent trips to the bathroom. I attributed it to aging, the natural course of life.
But the exhaustion became overpowering, irritability took hold, and the joy that once filled my days began to fade.
One afternoon, while I was lying on the couch trying to rest, my granddaughter came up to me and asked:
“Grandma, why don’t you want to play with me anymore? Did I do something wrong?”
That simple moment broke my heart… and changed my life forever. I realized I wasn’t truly living—I was merely surviving.
I believed I had everything under control—monitoring my blood sugar, adhering to my diet, taking prescribed medications.
Yet, deep down, I felt drained, irritable, and disconnected.
I wasn’t just tired…
I was missing out on the moments that mattered most.
For years, I fixated on numbers—A1C levels, insulin doses, carbs—thinking that was the key to improvement. But I overlooked something equally vital: my emotional well-being.
The stress, the constant worry, the sleepless nights… I assumed it was just part of the condition. But I was mistaken.
Then, during a routine check-up, my doctor posed an unexpected question:
“How do you feel emotionally about your diabetes?”
I was taken aback. No one had ever asked me that before. And for the first time, I realized that my exhaustion, frustration, and sadness weren’t just in my head—they were real, and they were affecting my health.
🧘 Take Mindful Breaks
– Just five minutes a day to breathe, relax, and disconnect. It sounded too simple, but those five minutes became my refuge from the constant stress.
🗣️ Talk About It
– Whether with a friend, a support group, or a therapist, sharing my experience changed everything. I wasn’t alone.
I didn’t have to make drastic changes—just small, consistent steps. And that’s what I did.
I began listening to my body, prioritizing my well-being, and embracing a new mindset.
Recently, I came across a simple, 10-minute method that became a game-changer for me.
It helped me support my overall well-being, restoring the energy and joy I thought I had lost.
This discovery empowered me to take control—not just of my health, but of my happiness.
Now, I can run around with my grandkids, laugh without gasping for breath, and cherish every moment without feeling held back.
