## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The single most important book for Diabetics to read
*by P***R on October 26, 2007*

The first think that is important to point out that while Diabetes Burnout is published by the lobbying group the represents the interests of those who PROFIT from Diabetes, not those afflicted, THAT Dr. William H. Polonsky, DOESN'T REPRESENT THE ADA, at all and the book wasn't written for the ADA.Dr. Polonsky however started a clinic in California to help psychological issues of the grind of maintaining glucose levels as well as trains and lectures doctors from all over the globe to STOP BLAMING THE DIABETIC for the challenges and changes in dealing with Diabetes.Heck, after reading Diabetes Burnout, it was the first time I ever have had it acknowledged that my feelings that are natural about the challenge of ATTEMPTING to manage my Diabetes are natural and not some sign of weakness.Understand that the book was published in 1999 (I think), where there are some changes in the understanding of Diabetes and choices.I agree that the book is not perfect and that a few parts of it seem a little simplistic on working through the psychological issues dealing with the attempt to manage diabetes.But I would give it 10 stars if I could. It is the first and best book of its kind and Dr Polonsky does GREAT work on this subject. I have spoken to him because, I am immediately be suspicious of anything that comes out of the ADA. Dr Polonsky has never worked for, been paid by or been sponsored by the ADA. The publishing arm of the ADA just saw that they might make some money as publishers of the book.Just look at the 238 million received by the ADA last year and look at their funding sources. The ADA posts their "Golden Circle", those are entities that have given them over a million dollars in a year. Then look at those in the 500,000 group, etc. As you will see, the funds are from Large Pharm, Insurance companies and Cadbury Schweps (sugar loaded candy and soda). Understand that the money they receive and spend on "research", just goes back to those in their "Golden Circle".

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Affirmation and Encouragement
*by K***A on June 18, 2014*

I have been Type 1 for 39 years, and "burnout" doesn't even begin to describe me. This book is encouraging, affirming, and gives you a non-threatening perspective on how you perceive yourself, others, emotions, and diabetes. He takes you through some checklists that are real eye-openers, and then with your "score" you read information on why you scored so high/low, and how you can get some help, or help yourself...or get a better more realistic perspective on things. Diabetes is a multifaceted disease, which not even endocrinologists can fully "appreciate." This book is worth every penny.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Valuable to all diabetics and or loved ones
*by T***E on February 3, 2015*

I think anyone with diabetes feels burn out at least once. I have only been diagnosed with the disease for 10 years and I know I feel this way at least weekly. I had to share the book with another diabetic. Very good read. I may have to order me another copy. It really helped me understand a lot more.
