"I've been really bad"

One of the most common things I’ve heard when people come in for their diabetes check is this "I've been really bad" or "I've been really naughty". I usually try and explore what’s behind this with people. Usually, I find that there’s a shame issue, and then look to help people challenge it because it can be so powerful and so destructive to relationship and fulfilment.
