I just got diagnosed as a prediabetic and I’m really scared. I’m scared I won’t have the motivation to fix it and I will end up in a hole of binging. I’m only 17. Everyone around me gets to do whatever they want and it’s just unfair. While I have to watch everything I do. I’m sacred I won’t be able to stop binging either and that I will just crave and crave. I feel hopeless and I am too embarrassed to tell anyone. No one knows I binge. No one knows I am prediabetic expect for the doctor.
I want to be normal

Hey, Starryrice. That sounds really difficult. When you talked to your doctor, did you disclose that you binge?

Cravings are quite difficult to deal with from my experience. You reaching out like this is a good first step. There is a free Kindle book for cravings on Amazon by a phycologist. May be helpful. If you want a few tips from my experience that may be useful please let me know.
This is the book I mentioned. May be useful.
Defeat Your Cravings: The Back Door to Weight Loss
by Glenn Livingston (Author)
That sounds really hard. A whole new hurdle to overcome. You’ll be stronger than others if you fight it though. You’re trying to jump to the same height as others from a hole in the ground. If you reach that height, you’ve actually jumped further than people without diabetes. Talk to your doctor about resources. People don’t need to know that you don’t trust, but people survive with diabetes. Our dad has it, and he’s still here and just fine. Don’t do it alone. Nothing is meant to do alone. Humans are pack animals for a reason. We thrive off of connection, and we cannot be true loners. You physically require others as a human to survive. Find those people, your doctor should have some resources for you. Keep fighting. We wish you luck.
