OK thats it!

[Shonsteez]

Alright, thats it...I gotta start carin about my health better from now on...I mean, dont get me wrong, im always cautious but i do cut corners to get by...And basically i think its time to start havin some will-power...

As most of you guys no i indulge in alcohol like basically everyday and ironically - (here comes tha catch) - i happen to be a diabetic...

Yeah, i know...Im stupid - im just a sucker for easy ways out and illusions of good times...

Anyways, this morning i woke up with paramedics around me and it was far beyond surreal....It basically just sucked really bad and made me think about how i treat myself...I mean, i basically could have died!...Just comprehending that is hard to swallow, and what makes it worse is that this isnt tha first time its happened - but its been like a year since tha last time...Im just waitin for tha magic pill to swallow and make it all go away...
This actually happened to not be caused by drinking tho. I just mentioned it since it was tha turning point in my awakening towards trying to live longer....Its quite elementary really, and i know im smarter than that shit, so i have to just stick it out i guess...???

Not drinking is really jus tha icing on tha cake but its a start and one more thing towards living a healthier life since im not really supposed to drink anyways (i know dont tell me, its clearly ironic)

Tha real reason i bottomed out this morning was, if any of you are familiar with how diabeties works? , I had a high blood sugar before i went to bed so i took some insulin to counteract it. Problem was i forgot to eat something tho since i was taking insulin regardless of having a high blood sugar or night....So mhy sugar dropped to dangerous levels and i woke up with an IV in my arm...FANTASTIC!....Great way to start tha day...

So now that this sounds like an AA meeting..LOL...I just wanted to say to all of you who may also be diabetic, i know everybodies different and has a different matabolism, eating habits, ect... but dont drink alcohol cuz you know you shouldnt in tha first place....And take extra good care of eating when you need to...!!! (including myself of course)

OK my rant is done...
:alcoholic :finger:


ps..sorry this had nothin to do with hiphop....

I am diabetic also, its in my genes along with a big belly - I understand your need to binge, but there will never be a line where everythings level. If ya take in less sugar, you get stupid and cant concentrate - your body is weak and you feel sleepy, you take in too much sugar you end up cleaning the house at 1 am in the morning.
So I just live on you know, with a smile everyday...

 

[mercurywaters]

please start taking care of yourself deuce. too much alcohol isn't safe in any condition much less for a diabetic. i hope this is a big enough shock to keep you awake. i hate to see bad things happen to good people

 

[PrOLifiK]

Man I used to drink every nite a few years back then I found the magical power of the herb. Now I blaze way more than I drink and like doing that way more. I still drink sometimes when im in the mood but it always fucks me up. For example getting a drunk in public with resisting arrest. lol. Damn shit like that make me not even miss it.

 

[Chrono]

I'm just now slowing up on the alcohol and herbs.. fews years back though i had to have both at the same time everynight. I was de-evolving like a mug and not getting any hiphop done (except for drunk-ass freestyles). Back then if i had alcohol and no herb i was pheem for it and vise-versa. I was on the edge. But i'm doing much better now and working out. Thats the thing. either your going forward or backward, there's no middle to that. i've set a certain number of situps to do 6 mornings a week and pushups or curls every other morning. I feel great and my beats, voice, and insipration is growing. Good Luck Duecemade, i like your music

 

[Shonsteez]

Dam Krzy, too bad yer in NY man, we could start a club, LOL...
Yo seriously tho, thank you guys for tha kind repsonses...
I wasnt lookin for someone to pat my back, but subconsciencly i think i was...I jus decided to vent since it made me really think and i figured it might help some other people too if there in tha same postion as me...
I know you know how much it sux havin to deal with that shit all tha time too Krzy...shit just gets like a dead end some times...
Im definitly gonna strive for greater excellence from this point on tho...

 

[Ash Holmz]

well duece let me tell you what happened to my boy..... me and two of my friiends were out at the club bout 3 weeks ago on the coldest night in syracuse history(really it was..it was in the record books) drunk as hell..... house party drinkin heavy then went to club with mad dough.... i was lit... my man couldnt even walk.. he started talkin to this chick and i went off and started to talk to chicks and shit tryin to get sum ass...anyways when were bout to leave we cant find my boy anywhere....so we assumed he left woth some girl or something... then the next day im feeling like gettin fuced up again so i call my boy thinking he gonna have a good story bout some chick..his mom answers the phone talkin bout an ambulance picked him up from a snowbank on the side of the street... he was passed out and both of his hands got frostbitten! and he didnt even remember how he got there! now that fucin sux his hands lost all thier color and swelled up too like three times there size wit blisters as big as marbles all over them... if the ambulance got to him later he would have had to get his hands amputated or worse he would have froze to death! his hands are healin we just went out the other night and he rocks gloves and shit its kinda funny but not really... but anyways to make a long story short....... party smart and know your limits!!!!!!!!

 

[Cold Truth]

damn man..............

i'm not diabetic, but several people close to me have been. my closest friend in elemntary school was diabetic, and i saw the things he had to do to take care of himself.... my ex girlfriends grandfather was a diabetic with a huge appetite- dude was well over 400 pounds when he passed.

all i know is that you arent exactly doing right by yourself by drinking the way you do. i'm one to talk- i take horrible care of my self. the thing is its gonna be hard to change your lifestyle, so remember to hit us up when you are struggling. i'm sure you got yer bouys up in chico and all but we all care just as much (i think) so let us know if you need anything.

 

[N.U.G.]

take care of yourself Duece!

I don't drink or smoke and life is much better and healthier without that shyt...

Good luck!
