We need to stop stigmatising type 2 diabetes (or any type that isn't type 1 really).

It stops people from getting medical treatment. It doesn't help anybody. Type 2 is a complex condition that requires nuance. 1/?

@ElinorCooper27 @FranEvergreen @SofieHagen To be fair, she actually would be lying

@wildflowers1996 Not your fault in the SLIGHTEST. I've got liver tumors related to over production of estrogen. Would you blame me for that? Hopefully not! You're not to blame either.

@madetobebee Well I’m ashamed of THEM. So…

@marquisele You are not unlovable. You don't deserve to starve.

@taracdennehy @stimmyskye Thank you for sharing! Drs doing kind of thing kills ppl! Especially blaming weigh when it's irrelevant. Parents assumed my severe abdomen pain was due to my weight and just told me to eat better food. Turns out I had a cyst on my fallopian tubes. Nearly left me infertile at 13.

@stimmyskye It* can be difficult, sorry

[Kindness Persists @kindpersists]

@stimmyskye I had a gyno tell me that feeling pain during penetrative sex is probably anxiety.... Which I guess is fair because if you are uncomfortable or clenching then yeah I can be difficult... Turns out I actually have a retroverted uterus

@sassree @simplefasting This is how companies continue to sell dieting to you. Just like Noom. They all say they aren't diets and then repeated show how they ARE. They just need to admit it and stop being sneaky about it.

there's a serial killer terrorizing the city but he only murders old people and sick people so we don't need to worry or try to stop him

My liver specialist tried to give me weight loss advice for my diabetes. To be clear, she is NOT my endo or part of my diabetes care team. And she didn't bother to check with them first bc if she had, she’d know I'm in ED recovery and don't need her advice on that.

Those who died from COVID with “underlying conditions” still suffered a preventable death and deserved to live too.

@MaxieMoosie I moved out with my partner in to our own home. I study full time AND work full time. I make $50,000 a year (au). I effectively mask my true self in public.

‘wow! Congrats on your sobriety!’ and the looks they all gave me for a second... I still can't figure out what went wrong.

Once, a group of peers I was on a group project with in uni and I were talking about alcohol and one of them mentioned she hadn't drunk in like 10 yrs or something, and being social workers and wanting to encourage he, I said... (cont.)
