I probably abuse sugar though not as much as I did when I was younger. But since I never go see doctors (I hate doctors) I am good to go. If no doctor tells me that I have a condition then It's like I don't have a condition. So all those exams one is supposed to do in life are not for me. I'm not about to let some quack stick a finger up my ass to check my prostate, no sir, no thanks.
So about diabetes, I don't want to know if I have it or not. I assume I don't and I'm happy just assuming.

Basically you are saying:  Ignorance is bliss...  why live an extra 10 years if it means worrying about things, and hope to go out quick instead of living longer trying to keep a chronic condition under control that slowly destroys your body...  we are all going to die anyway, it's not worth trying to prolong it.  better to live to 50 and enjoy life then live to 60 but having to be extra careful with what you eat, etc....   (just hypothetical numbers)

I tend to be that way too, but my wife and family don't agree... and sometimes you have to think about those you would leave behind sooner by not knowing about a condition before you end up dead or in the hospital.

 

Y'all are going to regret thinking like this if you get prostate cancer and only finding out at 45 in the emergency room that you will have 1 month left to live with atrocious pain when you could just have it check before and get it fixed before it's too late. Getting checked isn't living in fear but NOT going is. It's not from being scared of facing the truth that you will suddenly not get really sick and die.

Also, not only is it really important if you are in a relationship, I think it's important to see if you have something going on or even just not let your partner and family down at a young age just cause you were scared.(idk maybe you have a family or a really long term relationship)

 

Type 1 sucks and it's not your fault if you have it and I really am sad about whoever get diagnosed with it so is type 2. But anyone complaining about type 2, you can easily turn it around so if you don't change your routine (which is obviously terrible for you if you have type 2 and would feel way better if you fuel your body with good stuff) then it's cause you are happy with having it.
