Live Free with T1D: How to Stop Diabetes Stress From Shrinking Your Life, with Dr. Mark Heyman

from Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes · host Stacey Simms with Mark Heyman

We're taught about what to do when blood sugar goes high or low, but almost nothing about what to do when diabetes burnout, anxiety, or fear takes over. My guest – Dr. Mark Heyman says the biggest thing holding you back with type 1 diabetes may not be your blood sugar — but the stress of managing it. Mark lives with type 1 and his new book, Live Free with T1D, offers what he calls an "operating system" for the emotional side of diabetes — practical tools for handling the uncomfortable moments without letting them make your world smaller.
