Life will be much easier if your family, friends and colleagues know that you have diabetes. It means that you can work out the problems of your diabetes in front of them if you have to, without being embarrassed.
You can also tell them what to do if you have a hypoglycemic attack. If you are relaxed about it, they will be too. By showing them that diabetes does not interfere with your being an efficient employee, a good friend, a super-mum, you are teaching them to be a little more receptive to the next diabetic person they meet.
Some people with diabetes are kind enough to help others who are in difficulties. Their help is especially important for those who have just been diagnosed diabetic. If they see that you are happy, fit and well, they will be much less frightened at the prospect of having diabetes for the rest of their lives. If you would like to do this, to offer your help to your local diabetic association or hospital, it will be greatly appreciated. A few centers run courses for diabetics to learn how to teach others about their condition.
