You might be a DOCaholic…
Top Twelve signs you are addicted to the Diabetes Online Community:
(Yes, twelve. Because who can really stop at ten?)
#12
You obsessively take photographs of numbers.
#11
You know what it means to have “bloused” before a meal, and you’ve likely done it yourself.
#10
Sometimes need resist urge talk how Bigfoot write because it so catchy & fun.
#9
On the last day of each month, you stay up late to get your “Best of…” nominations in before the deadline.
#8
You cherish your Saturday morning ritual with Uncle Wil.
#7
Your Friday wardrobe is predictably blue.
#6
In any major city (and maybe some minor ones), you know just who to call in the event of a diabetes-supply crisis.
#5
You know that a DArt is not part of a game which involves throwing pointy things toward a bullseye.
#4
You know who Loopy, Lancet, and Billy Corgin are — and you know that they have nothing to do with silliness, stabbing fingers, or Smashing Pumpkins.
#3
Somebody you’ve never met really, really loves and cares about you. Really.
#2
You’ve forgotten to include the #dsma hashtag on Wednesday more times than you can remember.
#1
Your DOC is not your endocrinologist.

My name is Laddie and I am a DOCaholic. I qualified on 12 points, so I think I’ve got it pretty severe. I wonder if there is a twelve step program where I can go to get help.

I’m afraid all the 12-step programs will just pull you in further. Sorry.
