Longing for what might have been; a great need to control; deep sorrow; no sweetness left.
Unexpressed anger and hostility.
Strong dependency needs.
"Dying for something sweet."
Behind the desire of diabetics to enjoy sweet things, and their simultaneous inability to assimilate sugar and absorb it into their own body-cells, stands an unsatisfied desire for love, along with the inability to accept love and absorb it unreservedly. Diabetes leads to an over-acidification of the body which can lead to coma. Once again we have the polarity between love and aggression, between sugar and acid, and symbolically, at a mythological level, between Venus goddess of Love) and Mars (the war god).
Perhaps you are convinced that high blood sugar is the root problem, and imagine this problem would be solved if only the excess blood sugar would just leave. Since it is actually a problem of transporting sugar into cells and metabolism, make sure to visualize this sugar uptake process, and not that the blood sugar "goes away." You can use the power of your mind to talk positively to yourself, every day. This process is called affirmation. You can make up you own, or use these:
I will do something sweet for myself today.
This moment is filled with joy.
I now choose to experience the sweetness of today.
