Über diesen Titel
What if diabetes burnout could be softened by art - or better yet, a clever print that makes you look twice? I finally got to chat with Alex, a graphic designer and fellow Type 1, whose bold prints tackle diabetes with wit, colour, and soul. She was diagnosed in her thirties, right before a flight to New York. What followed? Denial, depression, and a creative rebellion against the isolation so many of us know too well. We get into propaganda, CGMs, mental health, and why diabetes feels more like a relationship than a condition (complete with shouting matches). Alex’s work doesn’t scream - it invites you in. And then flips everything you thought you knew. Her new project, Companion Cards, is something special: part game, part toolkit, all heart. If you’ve ever felt alone with Type 1 or needed help finding the words, these cards are pure gold. This one’s about burnout, design, and finding your people - even in the weirdest places.
