We all know that having diabetes or caring for someone who has diabetes can be challenging day in and day out. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to maintain a balance. Yes, having diabetes is serious, and you must manage it properly to reduce your risk of complications in the future. But everything about having diabetes doesn\u2019t have to be serious. Believe me when I say, \u201cYou will drive yourself nuts, if you cannot laugh about it.”<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why I\u2019ve scoured the internet and discovered some of the most hilarious diabetes memes out there. Let\u2019s take a look at some of my favorites.<\/p>\n

Even if it feels like the worst day you\u2019ve ever experienced with diabetes, you gotta remain positive!<\/p>\n

Chances are Slim to None?<\/h3>\n

No one is perfect, that\u2019s definitely one thing that living with diabetes or knowing someone who lives with diabetes can tell you right away. Having perfect blood sugars all the time? Wouldn\u2019t that be amazing?! I\u2019m pretty sure that\u2019s right up there with seeing a living, breathing unicorn. (But eating a low carb diet will get you much closer to perfect.<\/a>)<\/p>\n

An Actual Headache or Blood Sugars?<\/h3>\n

Not quite knowing if you\u2019re actually experiencing a real headache versus, maybe your blood sugars are a little high or low. This is one thing that makes having diabetes difficult. Maybe you are out and not sure and bolus really quick thinking it\u2019s high blood sugar, and come to find out when you\u2019re dropping low later it was an actual headache. It\u2019s a dangerous game we sometimes have to play.<\/p>\n

Ketone Testing Awkward Conversation<\/h3>\n

So, having some blood on you isn\u2019t bad, but that poor ketone strip I tell ya!<\/p>\n

The Changing of the Lancet Ceremony<\/h3>\n

One thing we all know, changing our lancets don\u2019t usually happen as often as we should, and our typical month supply of lancets seems to be enough for a lifetime supply!<\/p>\n

Nobody Likes Normal Anyway, Right?<\/h3>\n

When it seems like you\u2019ll never know what \u201cnormal\u201d is again and everything involving diabetes is making you feel a little crazy…<\/p>\n

Sleep is for The Weak<\/h3>\n

Having diabetes and caring for someone with it really takes the ‘sleep is for the weak’ scenario to a whole new level. You probably never knew you could actually function on such little sleep.<\/p>\n

The Alternative is Worse<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s really difficult sometimes to get people to truly understand that you are doing this because you have to and because the alternative is much worse! At least you can get a good laugh out of it if someone tells you this.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h3>\n

Managing diabetes and\/or caring for someone who has it has its ups and quite a few downs. Learning to laugh at some of the lighter things can really help to reduce your stress levels in dealing with this disease and make things a little more bearable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
