Not sure if this counts, but I finally built up the courage to talk to the group I am working on several projects with about my BP.

I felt that hiding it was hurting them as much (and the project) as it was hurting me to keep it from them and make excuses when I couldn't function.

I gave them a crash course talk on how it works, and that it doesn't make me, it's just a part of me. I even directed them to the PC BP faq if they wanted to get more understanding.

It feels like there's a weight lifted off of my chest and I am still feeling my hypo happy.

Went to my professor's office hours for my math class to work on things I don't understand and came out understanding so much more. (And found out my grade is 75% instead of 70% which is a bit of a relief). Ate a salad. Off to work in a half an hour.

Got out of bed and went to my Pdoc, and managed to explain my past two weeks without breaking down or punching a wall.
