Living with Diabetes

Alternating brief educational sections with space for responding to questions, this compassionate guided journal helps teens understand and express their many feelings about living with Type 1 diabetes. Topics explored include depression, anxiety, isolation, chronic fatigue, self-identity challenges, emotional responses to high and low blood sugar, and more. As they step through this journal, teens learn that their feelings are normal and are invited to share their unique stories. Physical self-care for teens with diabetes is essential, but so is emotional self-care. This journal is a simple, teen-friendly tool for emotional support, exploration, and growth.
