Why do some people with diabetes continue to drink alcohol without restraint, and what are they thinking?
I've really done a brief look at this type of person, and there are several main reasons.
The first is his own luxury wine into hidden, wine for him has been engraved in his bones, three days without food can be, a day without drinking alcohol is like a hungry tiger digging heart. The second is to take a chance, do not listen to the doctor, listen to the drinking buddies, mistakenly think that the doctor is exaggerating. The third is that such people generally have nothing to do, family relations, husband and wife relationship is generally not good, some divorced and children do not stand on their own position, due to introversion and capricious, it is difficult to communicate with others, that is, communication is also my way, you have your thousands of plans, he has his old doctrine, said it is the same as talking in vain.
All in all, this is mainly due to the lack of love in one's living environment and upbringing. Among the dozens of people I surveyed, those on dialysis, those with rotting feet, and those with hemorrhages in the fundus of the eye now account for seventy percent, and ten percent have already passed away. Special dialysis, three days, not to mention the economic burden and no quality of life, dialysis alone will make their pain. Often life is about to come to an end before awakening a large number of people in the hope that the life of the diabetic patients and not to understand the appetite for life, not only their own regrets for life, but also ashamed of their parents, wives and children, and friends and relatives ......
Almost all diabetic patients are diagnosed, the doctor will make a request to stop smoking and drinking. However, it is not uncommon for people who have diabetes to drink every day. As for what they think, use the example of two people I once met to give you an analysis.
Why do some people with diabetes continue to drink alcohol without restraint, and what are they thinking?

Patient one:He was a man from our village who was diagnosed with diabetes when he was less than 60 years old. In fact, initially no one knew about his high blood sugar because to outsiders, he looked like his usual self, mainly because of his addiction to alcohol and he still drank every day. From a young age, he drank three times a day, had to have a small drink in the morning without eating, and even more so at noon and in the evening. So anyone who has ever eaten with him knows that he can drink very well and can get drunk without any persuasion.
Today, in his 50s, he still does so, so people don't know he has diabetes. Because in everyone's opinion, it is impossible for a diabetic to still be able to drink like this. It wasn't until he was hospitalized once that people realized that his diabetes was so severe that he would have to rely on insulin injections in the future.
Patient two:He is a patient with a history of diabetes for more than 10 years, and when he was initially diagnosed, his doctor told him to stop drinking. He also tried to drink less, but then I do not know who said that drinking can lower blood sugar. In order to verify whether drinking alcohol can really lower blood sugar, he also made a special experiment, the results found that a little wine, postprandial blood sugar really down, and is a straight line down, even better than the effect of hypoglycemic drugs. Such a result, so he was surprised, since drinking can lower blood sugar, then why quit drinking?
After that, he gave up the idea of quitting drinking, and even drank more and more indulgently, slowly becoming unrestrained. Because he felt that the more he drank, the lower his blood sugar dropped. Sometimes he even bragged to other patients about how well his blood sugar was controlled, all because of the benefits of drinking. His end was predictable. Within a few years, his kidneys and eyes went bad, and then he got diabetic foot and faced the end of amputation.

Why are diabetics obsessed with drinking?
The two patients above are representative of the majority of diabetics who drink.
A class of patients is really no way to quit, because of the perennial addiction to alcohol, drinking has become a necessity of life, so even if you have diabetes, but also do not pay attention to it, always think that diabetes is not fatal, is not a big disease. On the contrary, drinking is more important. Some patients even feel that there is no point in living if they are not allowed to drink. So they would rather drink than put some effort into treating their disease properly.
Another category of patients is to find a good reason for their drinking, think that drinking can lower blood sugar. Just like the patient above, they also specifically did experiments to prove it, and the results were found to be true, then they are completely relieved to drink alcohol. Even, some patients feel that drinking can lower blood sugar, used to not drink, now in order to lower blood sugar, specifically learned to drink. This is really self-defeating.

Can diabetics drink alcohol or not?
Drinking alcohol is not recommended for diabetics at any time, and the so-called drinking alcohol can lower blood sugar is just a superficial phenomenon. Drinking alcohol to bring down blood sugar, only temporary, and destructive, in the long run, drinking alcohol will only accelerate the destruction of pancreatic islet cells, so that blood sugar out of control. In addition, drinking on an empty stomach also leads to the risk of hypoglycemia, high and low blood sugar fluctuations, the harm is more serious. Drinking alcohol will also have an impact on the metabolism of hypoglycemic drugs, either making the effect of lowering sugar lower, or will lead to drug accumulation in the body, increasing the risk of adverse reactions.
In short, drinking alcohol does more harm than good to diabetics.
If you are really as addicted to alcohol as the first patient, it is difficult to quit, but also to learn to slowly reduce the amount of alcohol, strict control of intake, the general requirements of one or two white wine each time, a bottle of beer, less than 2 times a week, in addition to pay attention to don't drink a high degree of alcohol, don't drink on an empty stomach, drink more water when you drink, eat more vegetables and so on. At the same time, must pay attention to diligently test blood sugar, in order to prevent blood sugar out of control or hypoglycemia.

Whether diabetics can drink alcohol has been asked by many diabetics and answered by countless doctors.
Anyone who is diabetic and voices such a query is trying to drink, because almost everyone knows that drinking is bad for your health, just as they all know that smoking is bad for your health.
The doctor will explain in detail that
The Harmful Effects of Drinking
Drinking alcohol can lead to alcoholic liver:People who drink for a long time will lead to abnormal lipid metabolism in the body, increase blood fat, fat cells encircle liver cells and fatty liver occurs, known as alcoholic fatty liver, which can be mild, moderate or severe, and it may also lead to liver function damage, the liver's detoxification ability decreases, and cirrhosis and liver cancer may occur in the long term development.
Low blood sugar may occur with alcohol:When fasting, the body mainly provides energy through gluconeogenesis and hepatic glycogenolysis to keep blood glucose stable. If a diabetic consumes a large amount of alcohol, especially on an empty stomach, hypoglycemia will occur when the body's stores of hepatic glycogen are depleted and gluconeogenesis is inhibited by alcohol. In severe cases, hypoglycemic coma can occur, and this condition is very difficult to distinguish from intoxication, which may lead to delayed treatment and life-threatening conditions.
Drinking alcohol raises your blood sugar:Drinkers usually consume large quantities of alcohol at gatherings of friends where food is very plentiful, and at the same time eat large quantities of very high-calorie foods. This, in turn, leads to excessive calorie intake, resulting in elevated blood glucose and a large number of calories converted to fat stored under the skin, leading to obesity. Excessive body weight results in significant insulin resistance, which also gradually raises blood sugar.
However, those who listen to it say that I understand, but still drink, and still drink without restraint, what is this mentality? Let me analyze it briefly.
Why am I drinking?
Work needs: Many people say that work needs, have to drink. Political reception has to drink, business has to drink, their own guests have to drink, other people's guests even more have to drink, in these people's view, all things must be resolved at the table.
This kind of excuse seems to be grand. Yes, it is necessary to work and there is a limit to the amount of money that can be earned, so we cannot stop working and earning money, can we?
But since the eight-point rule, I think there should be a lot less excuses for drinking. There are obviously fewer government receptions, the efficiency is higher, and there should be a lot fewer times when people are asked to drink first.
Business is much less at the expense of the body, and there are plenty of elegant, upscale consumptions that don't necessarily involve drinking expensive wine.
Pessimistic psychology: some diabetics say, anyway, diabetes can not be cured, drink it, the pain is a moment, first of all, regardless of how the body, drink and then say.
There are a lot of people who have this kind of mentality. Although diabetes cannot be eradicated yet, active treatment and keeping blood sugar as stable as possible will not affect work and life. Compared to non-diabetics, diabetic friends need nothing more than some medicine and a shot before meals, will it be more trouble than drinking some wine before meals?
The rhythm of death. My colleague's brother is 39 years old, last year unit physical examination diagnosed with diabetes, he took a look at the physical examination report and threw it to one side, turned to the supermarket to buy a box of Sprite, back home for three days to drink a whole box. Direct ketoacidosis 120 ambulance pulled to the hospital rescue, parents, wife and child crying death. Discharged from the hospital back home or not control, day and night he smoked and drank, stayed up late playing cards, do not control the diet, do not exercise. My colleague said she took her brother to the hospital endocrinology department to see those amputations, uremia, eyes can not see the late diabetic patients, he her brother or indifferent, now the whole family have no way out, they do not care about their bodies, no one else can do!
My point is:people like this don't take themselves seriously, they give up on themselves, and they end up destroying themselves
With all due respect.
Thanks for understanding!!!
Know a bank president, diabetes, but especially love to drink, drink every day, I guess it is diabetes caused by like drinking
I have diabetes for 9 years, before I got the disease, I drank alcohol, an average of half a catty a day, and smoked more than two boxes a day, and from the day I got the disease and was hospitalized, I have quit spilling and quitting smoking so far. Some patients at the village do not quit anything, and said not to listen to the doctor, eat more drink more smoke more nothing, everything is taboo, living is meaningless. One of the patients, later than I got sick 2 years, drinking and smoking all day without control, died last winter, practice has proved that diabetic patients must diet, taboo, quit smoking and drinking.
Some people with diabetes drink alcohol without restraint, not because they don't know that it's bad for their health, but because it's a habit they've formed over time and it's hard to break. And diabetes is a chronic disease, although we all know its complications, after all, the onset of the disease is many years later, and there are very few intuitive to see the complications.
54-year-old old Li is one of them, 3 years ago found out that diabetes, the doctor advised him to quit drinking, but more than 30 years of addiction to alcohol which can be said to quit, he tried to sneak a few times, found that there is no uncomfortable place, then boldly began to drink. His most important words are: the life of a person is a fixed number, whether you drink or not, it is time to go, it would be better to live a life of pain.

The 62-year-old old Liu is also one of them, more serious than the old Li, 8 years ago found out high blood pressure, 5 years ago and found out diabetes, serious overweight, used to be the secretary of the village, a few years ago when the general election retired, when the secretary of the time to develop the habit of drinking, these years or can not change over. He often hangs on his lips is: XXX do not drink, than I am still small, you see now not also lying in bed can not get up; XXX do not drink, half a year ago to get cancer went ......
Over the years, many diabetics who present to the clinic rarely quit drinking because of their diabetes for 2 main reasons:
1. a firm belief that there is no relationship between diabetes and alcohol consumption
Many patients say to me, "Doctor, alcohol doesn't contain sugar, why can't we drink alcohol if we have diabetes? If you say that drinking alcohol may cause cancer, I believe it, but I have never heard of drinking alcohol can cause diabetes, and isn't diabetes caused by eating sugar?
辟谣: Few people think that diabetes is related to alcohol consumption, but studies have shown that: alcohol consumption causes insulin resistance in adipose tissue, leading to abnormal glucose metabolism. Long-term and heavy alcohol consumption will make the energy regulators of many tissues in the body, including the liver, heart, skeletal muscle, fat, etc., work less efficiently and have a weaker ability to regulate sugar. For example, exactly what will reduce the uptake and utilization of diabetes by the adipose tissue, ultimately leading to insulin resistance.

Drinking alcohol will increase the incidence of diabetes, accelerate the emergence of diabetes complications, but the purely academic knowledge of many people do not understand, also do not believe, so the best way is to make a propaganda movie, or even can be made into 4D propaganda movie, so that people immersed in the scene, the effect of propaganda will be better!。
2. Years of bad drinking habits to quit
Diabetic patients are usually diagnosed with diabetes after 40 years of age, many have already had a history of drinking alcohol for more than 20 years, for them, not eating every day can be tolerated, but not drinking alcohol can not be tolerated, so only said that may accelerate the emergence of diabetic complications, and can not make them determined to give up alcohol.

Therefore, for these patients, the most important thing for their eventual success in quitting drinking is the company of their family members. It is only with the continuous encouragement, support and assistance of their family members that they can eventually quit drinking!
I am pharmacist Li, every day and you talk about health, welcome to pay attention! If you still have questions about health, welcome to leave a message to consult, after seeing will be the first time to respond.
"Want alcohol do not life" everywhere, such a person I really met, that is, around the colleague, the age is not big, 42 years old, his blood sugar is very high, every day on insulin to reduce sugar, that is, does not affect his drinking at all. In order to drink themselves also set their own life goals, called "five to fight for six", meaning that the guarantee to live to 50 years old, and strive to live to 60 years old, listen to such words, I really think that this kind of people are taking life as a child's play, boring and pathetic.
The value of life lies in a responsibility, a dedication, and if drinking is taken as a pleasure for a man to live, the value of his life is greatly diminished. People do not live for themselves, because we have an old man and a young man. The body has a disease is inevitable, you deliberately aggravate and not active treatment, this kind of person, you still feel he has value? Where is the meaning of living!
Some people, not only diabetics, in fact, all kinds of medical conditions, they get sick, do not follow the medical advice, I do what I want, ultimately it will be in this uncontrolled squandering of life, do not value the life of the person, he can care who you, so this kind of person is a very selfish person, because from his heart there is not a responsibility.
Diabetics on the table, first insulin, then drink, as if very righteous, in fact, in the eyes of others is a joke, laughing stock, this person is very greedy, good food and drink can not be controlled, no self-control, control, not an officer of the people, his mentality is that today's wine today drunk, mixing day ruffled people.
I have a little hair, this year less than 50 years old, the body used to be fat like a "ball", since the detection of diabetes, not long after the whole person is thin out of phase!
This hair of mine in a financial sector belongs to the middle management, the hands of a certain amount of power, and the expertise is particularly strong, so he has a particularly large number of drinking games, can be said to be as long as you want to participate in the three meals a day can drink.

Since he was tested for diabetes, he toned it down for a while, but it wasn't long before he reverted to his old ways and started drinking again and again .

Why do certain people know they have diabetes and still always drink uncontrollably? What kind of mentality is that?
Hair Ming knows he has diabetes and needs insulin in severe cases, and he still drinks alcohol uncontrollably, mainly for these reasons:.
- The Psychology of a Broken Pit.Diabetes is usually very hereditary, like my hairdresser his father was diabetic and was gone before he was sixty!So he also thinks he needs to be happy in time, left and right as it is, and that a quick day is a quick day.
- Self-discipline is particularly poor and cannot resist temptation.Because he has been accustomed to the hustle and bustle of the drinking game, he especially enjoys the feeling of being blown away, and once he loses this environment, he will feel a special sense of loss.And many of the people who approached him for a drink were basically begging for it, and compliments would be accompanied by advice that it was okay to have a drink.
- Alcohol is an addiction that can't be stopped by will alone.Many people who still drink uncontrollably after getting sick, mainly have developed alcohol dependence, as long as the body a little better to think of drinking, many good drinkers have this problem.
- Lack of discipline around them.This hairy daughter-in-law of mine divorced him! His daughter was away at school, and he was left with his 80-year-old mother. It can be said that the spirit is also empty, drinking is his means of solving loneliness and sorrow, and no one can restrain him.

In fact, diabetes can be well controlled with dietary moderation and reasonable medication. There are many old people around me who have had diabetes for decades and still look in good health.
Knowing that they have diabetes, but also always drink without restraint, in fact, there are many people around, so even their own bodies do not know how to take care of people, whether to love others I think we have to put a question mark ❓ So "poor people must be hateful", this sentence used in these know that they have a disease, but also uncontrolled drinking is the most appropriate. It's the most appropriate thing to say about these people who know they are sick and still drink without restraint.
