You are doing wonderful, Pedro! Be encouraged. You will have some good days and you will have some bad days. But be encourage. Never regret the choices you made and how you end up where you are today. I had to learn that and I had to be kinder to myself and you need to do the same. If you did not have any purpose or no meaning and no impact on others Then these changes and the things that you’re learning about yourself would never come to pass. So remember encourage. Don’t regret because it’s just as worse as anger. They will bring you down and they will imprison you. Be blessed
you should be proud of going to AA, it's a step in the right direction. and You're right it wouldn't be cool to retell the stories others at AA tell you without their permission.
The shame you're feeling and carrying is the starting point. To dig deep and find the original source of it. Why is it there? Much of these things stem from wayyyy back in childhood. Something you blocked out, etc. It's like peeling layers of an onion. Each one you peel off reveals something new to address and heal. Also, in any kind of awakening, you're going to lose some friends and gain new ones. It doesn't mean they're bad people, it means that they have a journey and healing of their own to handle. Maybe one day, your paths will cross again and have much healing behind you.
You said you couldn’t escape those feelings.. you are realizing that you can run from them or drink them away-you have to feel, deal and release them. You are on the right track now. 🙏🏻
Please don’t feel bad. This is something out of your control-but you can, now, take control. Help your daughter see you are taking care of yourself so she will. Please do this now, because if you don’t, I can guarantee life will be rough. My husband waited to long to take care of himself. I miss him and so do his daughters.
My all time high A1C. was 16. My initial diagnosis at the hospital was unexplained vomiting. After my body finally calmed down, they were able to figure out I had diabetes. My A1C. is now 8 several years later.
God bless you and your family, Pedro.🙏🏾 Although your daughter has diabetes, it is a blessing that you are her father. You understand how to deal with diabetes properly and can help her to navigate through it❤️🙏🏾
I get it. im chronically sick. clean and sober for many years but the damage was done. I'm excited to see you're journey to better yourself. there's NO shame in addiction. Keep going. Thank you Pedro. Stay healthy
Type 1 was started for me at age 3. Now have had it for 41 years. One device that has helped greatly is continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Freestyle libre is somewhat affordable but once I got a cgm my A12 dropped from 9.8 to under 7. Add an insulin pump and it is incredible how much better I feel. However if your insurance sucks check with your state. In Idaho gig workers can deduct their mileage and other expenses which allows your income to be lower to qualify for Medicaid. Every state is different but I will say it is so much better now than when I got it in 1983.
Good keep going here AA meetings get a good sponsor. You can do this Pedro. You’re the only one that can help yourself when it comes to drinking. You seem like a strong guy. Keep going OK I really enjoy your videos. It’s hard with your diabetic and stuff, but you can do it Pedro. Remember, Pedro you’re only human thank you for this video and being honest.❤ 💪💪💪💪🤗 that’s all it matters if your daughter loves you your girlfriend lose you and they will always be by your side Pedro. Remember that you’ll find out who your real friends are who are your real friends going through this?
I want you to know something. I was married for 33 yrs to a man who had type 1. He passed away 17 months ago at the age of 62. Both my kiddos have it too. They were age 2 and 3 they are now 25 and 35. They are doing very well. Do you have a CGM?
Knowledge is key when it comes to health, and in some instances we have to question our doctors, because they are like your local auto mechanic, its hard to be 100 percent all the time, but the question is when did we go wrong with our eating habits ect. as of people where we started to elevate these diseases throughout our history, and do we need to go back to that lifestyle in order to live a longer life, we need to educate ourselves and our children because thats where it starts, take all the emotions and convert it into knowledge Pedro, you got it, first thing is acknowledge the problem as you know
Whatever you do, beware of the alcohol relapse. Im not trying to scare you or anyone else but its a real issue. If you were drinking 6-8 drinks in a day even on occasion its building up an unbelievable tolerance to booze. When a person gets sober that tolerance drops rapidly. Thats a good thing because it means your body is recovering rapidly. But also a very dangerous thing, because mentally an alcoholic can be ruminating subconsciously about drinking. Its only a natural occurrence. So when people relapse it can get ugly real fast because the tolerance is gone but the herculean feats if strength with booze are not. I know several people who went through a stretch or stretches of sobriety only to relapse and one friend didn't make it. Its that dangerous. Sobriety is not to be taken lightly. Greatest thing ever for many but its not a joke.
The dexcom sensor was a game changer for my girl. It tests your blood glucose every 5 min so you always know where your sugars are and alerts you if your sugars are hi or loe. Plus it will dispence insulin. It saved my gf life. It can also alert people you choose via text message if your sugars are off. My gf had A1C close to 10 but now it runs 6.5. I almost lost her when her sugars went to over 1000 a coupple of times. Since she used the Dexcom that has not happened once. Wish you good health and hope you gain control of you diabetes.
Great video! Although you are not 'betting' on yourself. A 'bet' is a wager that can be won or lost. I'd say you're 'investing' in yourself vs betting on yourself.
There is a major length discussion of shame and guilt in a book I like "Drive Drunk Walk Sober " This Irish young man drives drunk and causes a tragedy that removes a random father from his children on the way home from an office party. He spent decades wallowing in shame before he got the counseling he needed to forgive himself in a rehab center.

Type 2 diabetes isn't always caused by diet. Type 2 can be genetic as well. You can't make Type 2 "go away". Once you're diabetic you're always diabetic, but you can definitely control Type 2 better with diet.
I know many people who have completely reversed and eliminated type two diabetes. The biggest lie that the conventional medical industry wants people to believe is that health issues cannot be reversed or cured naturally.
Idk if you’ve heard about fullyrawkristina but apparently she got rid of her diabetes. I found her 10 years ago but the main idea is to eat more real foods that are not processed. I don’t know what a doctor would say about her diet though.
Yes I love these videos. They are inspiring. Keep them coming. It shows you are human! Pride will never get us anywhere but humanization does. 🙌🏾💯
I am a type 1 diabetic since I was 2 years old !! We are warriors
Thank you for sharing your story. You telling your story will help others and inspire others to take care of their health as well.

Being humble instead of insisting that you already know everything about how to handle every situation is a good thing.

Rooting for you man! Nobody deserves anything
Things are scary but YOU'RE NOT ALONE‼️YOU ARE LOVED‼️❣️
One last thing, type 1 diabetes also effects your mental health, terribly. Please get some therapy. It does help.
Appreciate your honesty brother, keep on keeping on my friend.
God bless you and your family, Pedro.🙏🏾
Although your daughter has diabetes, it is a blessing that you are her father.

Identifying the problem is half the solution and sometimes takes time.
I remember my Dad telling me in my 30s ..Son u don't have nufn if u don't have your health. He died of liver cancer 15 yrs ago at 59 🙏🏻

The Fall Guy on Peacock streaming now was pretty fun, beginning with Kiss I was Made for Loving You as the theme song 🎵

Were you just listening to Taylor Swift and crying? A line from The Fall Guy it's pretty fucking funny!
I’ve heard greats things about Dr. Bernstein’s Diabetes Solution book.
Idk if you’ve heard about fullyrawkristina but apparently she got rid of her diabetes. I found her 10 years ago but the main idea is to eat more real foods that are not processed. I don’t know what a doctor would say about her diet though.
Sorry you are having a hard times ! Never knew you had an issue with alcohol! Sorry Boss!
You found your purpose and that demon has no more power over you !!
Does fasting help? I would like to try DMT sometime
