Diabetic & Me — Read about the lives of diabetics

Hey Ely! this is so good, i'm so happy to see this right from the start. I really love what you're doing here and finally is launched! Congratulations to you! Much love from Singapore. I love all the stories.

Hi Product Hunt! I have lived with type 1 diabetes since March of 1996. Living with diabetes didn’t make my life easier but it did open a new world and created new friendships. I started writing about my life with type 1 diabetes in January of 2019. I created journals and kept records of my daily life but never got to the point of publishing it online. In October 2019 I made the decision not to focus on myself anymore. I created an online interview and I posted my first draft of that interview on Reddit and got around 30 people that wanted to participate. When reading the interview I quickly came to the conclusion I wasn’t the only one with certain problems or feelings that go hand in hand with the life of a diabetic. I wanted to share these stories online and open up a new world. Focussing on others showed me how people around the world live with diabetes. I bring an honest and open account of my own life with diabetes but also the lives of others. I work hard to stay involved and give as much as I can back to the community that empowers and inspires me. Hope you find this useful and if you are a diabetic or know any diabetics, feel free to share this.
