I completely understand the stress you are going through, as do many others on this forum. It's new for you, it's new for your daughter, and it's new for me (dxd 3 months ago, my kids do not have diabetes at this time). I've lost my mind and I've had it back everynow and again. It's a lot to take in. An awful lot. But I have to believe you will eventually make it through because I have to believe I will make it through. I do not think you are overly paranoid. It's completely justified, COMPLETELY. You have the right to allow yourself some release of your emotions. You do, however, need to stop for a second, close your eyes, and concentrate on your breathing. It's hard, no doubt about that, but you will make it through.
