I personally try to avoid fatigue by often taking breaks from work to home. On my lunch break if I'm feeling tired there's a quiet place where I can sleep for 30 minutes but mostly I enjoy going outside for some fresh air which rejuvenates me and eating a small 🍎 also gives me more energy and drinking plenty water. I find myself not sluggish or fatigued when I eat a light meal and simply having some alone time to just relax or meditate or talking to someone who is positive and uplifting of joy or laughter. I simply just want to carry my happiness to all throughout my day of making others feel better know matter what you're going through but I'm understanding of your emotions or feelings. I give empathy to those in need. I chose happiness for me even when the 🙁 appears and it does but I take slow deep breaths and I began to be me again and not that devil 😈 who is looking to still my 😊. Getting home from work I greet my family but I'm allowed 30 minutes to myself just to shower and relax before doing anything else praise God 🙏💖 before doing anything else. I don't have to rush to cook because we can cook in my home so we don't wait for a specific person to cook and we all clean after ourselves in the kitchen. We have disagreements but we all know with communication that we must have a positive solution for our family of 3: Me, hubby and daughter 18 years old also my two sons although not living with us. If I have yell or argue, I'm walking away so that I don't regret words I can't take back and this has been effective for me and later when I was calm I talked to the person to speak my emotions usually something I didn't like that you said and to make peace with ourselves versus going to a supervisor. As adults we should be able to communicate and figure things out and mostly we do. We all have to respect each other.
Have a blessed night Everyone 😄❤️💕🙏!

Balance your carb intake over the day to try and keep the number of carbs as even as possible from meal to meal.

Doing so gives you more "consistent" (not better) energy throughout the day since carbs are a source of "energy".

Staying consistent stops the extreme highs and extreme lows surrounding meals.

I eat 4 meals a day spaced about 4 hours apart and attempt to keep each as close as possible to 25 carbs - so I have tighter sugar ranges over the course of the day and when your energy level is "consistent" then you can adapt instead of getting a "jolt" and then crashing and remaining in a lull until the next time you "add fuel"....

"damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead" I fully concede I will lose the war, but I will win today's battle. There is no guarantee on tomorrow. Stay positive, the very thought in my head at any given moment, i.e. attitude, is the only thing I have control over. I urge all to continue the good fight.

How To Manage Fatigue For Me:

Depression, emotional stress and anxiety are common factors with diabetes and fatigue.
I create a positive mindset by expressing gratitude for the good things in my life. I make positive statements to myself throughout the day by complimenting myself and others, celebrate my talents or recognize my accomplishments. I don't compare myself to other people. Life sometimes brings painful experiences like death. You don't need to find something good in this situation. Take your time to grieve and express your emotions to help them pass. I live according to my personal values by doing things that are important to me, me feeling truly happy and deciding what I really want in life. I have fun which helps me enjoy my life more. Everyone has weaknesses, so I don't feel bad about mines but I set a goal/s to improve them. I spend money on experiences rather than things because experiences lead to lasting happiness like fun activities or trips with people I care about. I have a good support system of the diabetesteam, family and friends. I care for my mind and body of getting a warm shower, walking and 8 hours of sleep which makes me feel happy and is a stress reliever. I get contentment of peace by praying or simply being alone to read or write.

Have your doctor check your magnesium level. It is common for diabetics to become deficient in magnesium. If you are you can get oral supplements but based on my own research I feel topical magnesium is better absorbed then oral supplements. Low levels of magnesium can give you fatigue and muscle cramps
