Diabetes sufferers around the world are sharing their stories and experiences to help others who are looking for answers about diabetes. Australian-based website, The Official Diabetes Blogâ„¢ has dedicated a new area of the site to collecting people’s stories, which will be used to help others who are struggling with diabetes, or who want to know about the condition.

The move has been prompted by an increasing number of requests for personal stories from visitors to www.OfficialDiabetesBlog.com. “What we’re hearing is that a lot of the information out there is about the hard facts, but many people are looking for personal accounts that tell of people’s ups, downs and experiences,” said Stephanie Jakobi, spokesperson for The Official Diabetes Blogâ„¢.

With approximately 275 Australians developing diabetes every day, the demand for experience-based information about the condition is certainly on the rise. Visitors to The Official Diabetes Blogâ„¢ are being invited to visit www.officialdiabetesblog.com/my-story if they would like to be part of this exciting new initiative and help other people affected by diabetes.

Many people find it easier to cope with the condition once they learn that they are not alone and when they can read about how others have coped with adapting their lifestyle to the condition. Finding out you have diabetes can be frightening and having to adjust your diet, exercise and routine can be very inconvenient at first.

However, the fact is that many people with diabetes live a very normal, enjoyable life once they become accustomed to the changes that their condition requires. In many cases, it’s simply a matter of adjustment.

www.OfficialDiabetesBlog.com is looking for stories from people in a variety of situations, including people with type 1, type 2 and gestational diabetes. The Official Diabetes Blogâ„¢ team are particularly interested in hearing from people who believe that their experiences could benefit others with the condition.
