I need some life advice Now, I know asking Basil probably isn't the best of ideas, considering the fact that I probably wont get a lot of serious answers. So, i'm going to preface this post by saying I would really appreciate some actual responses. This situation is causing me a lot of distress, and I need some people to give me advice. I'll try to keep this short. I'm pretty convinced I've got type 2 diabetes. I have a lot of the symptoms that are present in type 2 diabetics. I thought maybe it's just paranoia, but I have too many of the symptoms for it to be coincidence. Now, that's already pretty hard to deal with, but the next step will be worse: telling my parents. My parents are very healthy people and usually tell me I should not eat

Diabetes Boy Update Original post here: Well, I told my parents about it. They were pretty shocked at first, and didn't want to believe me. My mom got pretty pissed, my dad was cool about it though. We talked for awhile about the symptoms of type 2 diabetes and the reasons I thought I might have it. They slowly began to realize that I may have a lot of these symptoms, like frequent urinating, dehydration, blurry vision, etc. After accepting it, we decided to schedule a doctor's appointment after our vacation (we leave in a few days, pretty bad time to realize I might have diabetes, I know) and ask what we should do as a next step and what the doctor's opinion on the matter is. It was really painful to see their reaction when I told them. Bo

How do I change a nickname I dont like? So last year I was sitting in english class after lunch and I had this huge chicken bean burrito. It was really good, and everything was chill. The class was just sittin and listening to the teacher lecture about some book or something. Then suddenly I felt my butt opening real wide for a fart. I thought it would pretty silent cause I could sort of predict the butt to fart ratio. But I predicted wrong and the fart went out and it was like a nuclear bomb. My desk started vibrating cause it was so big, it was loud and went on for like a minute straight. This fart was like, radioactive I mean I could feel the sheer power of it. Everyone looked at me and was giggling and my face was all red. Now everyone

Is this a serious health problem? Ok, ill try to put this in the best wording possible. I guess last night while I was sleeping, I must have slept on my D strange. So now that uuh, "slit" on the tip that the pee comes out of it is twisted weirdly, and the pee always shoots out way to the left now. I've had to sit down while peeing for the past day so it doesn't spray everywhere. Idk if it will fix itself and shape back to normal, or if it is health problem or what, but I guess ill ask for some advice from basilers (which now that I think about it probably is not a good idea at all.)

Diabetes Boy The Final Chapter Previous threads for context: By the way, this thread is just for anybody that actually cared about the previous posts (which could be absolutely nobody, but meh). I just want to share my happiness as well. Well, Basil, it's been a while since I last talked about it. Since then, I've gone on the vacation, came back, and the most important part: gotten a blood sugar test. And, there is good news and bad news. The good news is I am not diabetic! The bad news is, I am in the early stages of pre-diabetes. But that means it is reversible! So, you bet since I heard that that I am eating much healthier now. I am talking major diet changes. I am so glad that I've been given the opportunity to better myself before its

Im depressed now So today, I was taking my driver's ed class as per usual. It is the 5th day of the class, and it was my 4th time driving. So I went out with my instructor, and we drove for roughly 30 minutes before the end of the lesson. I was so happy with myself because he said I was doing great and I made literally no mistakes, the best I had ever done up to this point. However, that all changed in the last 2 minutes or so of the lesson. I was fixed on trying to find the area where you would pull into the parking lot, and I was not concentrating on the road. Bam, I ran a stop sign. I know it was completely my fault, and that I should have been paying more attention to the road ahead. Afterwards I parked, and I got yelled at by my instru
