Type 1, it can't be cured.

It might be 2. I'm not sure. It can be cured I think. My dad has type2. My friends sister has type 1.

Type one. You are born with it.

To be honest they are both horrible, don't think in the sense of... "Oh,  I got type 2, so I am going to be fine." You have to think in the sense that you  have diabetes, and how to cope.

Type one is typically worse because that means that you're insulin dependent.

Type 1 is worse. That's the kind of diabetes where you have to inject yourself in the stomach before eating. In the case of women, it's risky to have children (give birth). Type 1 is often hereditary but it's doesn't mean you're certainly going to get it if someone in your family has it or that you won't get it if nobody in your family doesn't have it.

Type 2 is controlled by a special diet and healthy lifestyle. It's often a thing that comes with age.
