new diabetic 1 on insulin

Hi: I am new to this site. Hope I do this right. I have been type2
diabetic for 18 years, taking metformin, avania, glybride, and
prandase, I am so depressed. Yesterday went to specialist, who gave
me insulin prescription to start me. I drove past drugstore because
i couldnt stop crying. I am in denial. In March I had two stents
inserted in main heart artery. I have to buy a blood pressure
machine to test BP twice daily. I am 48F, am under alot of stress
raising 5 year old grandson since he was 6 weeks old. Am always
tired, and lots of depression. I try to be happy around grand so he
doesnt pick up on my problems but I am sure he does pick up some. I
am over weight. Linda M
