Vent Thread Free For All

I just had dinner with my partner and a friend and was trying to explain to them that I am trying intermittent fasting to help with my blood sugar numbers that often go above 200 after meals and got completely shut down. My friend said "that's just way to complicated for me." And my partner tried to make a joke about it.

I just responded to my friend that they're not diabetic so she wouldn't understand but I have to think about it and told my partner that I was serious and would like if he would try to listen.

Sometimes I just wish they could understand though...or that I could just not have to think about and deal with type 1 for awhile. Usually I'm fine with all this stuff, but tonight it just hit me. I guess I just needed somewhere to vent. I'm glad this is here for me.
