Default Dealing with judgement.

I'm 15 years old and have type 2 diabetes. Unfortunately, diabetes runs in both sides of my family. My mom, dad, grandpas, aunts and uncles have diabetes. When I was diagnosed, I struggled for months with depression and occasionally have my days where I slip back into it. I've been going to new doctors, recently. I have to tell them I'm diabetic. Every one of them gave me a scolding look as if I did this to myself and it really pisses me off because even before I was diagnosed I took care of my health knowing I could become diabetic. I worked really hard for nothing. And I hate how they think they can just show up and pass judgements without even knowing my story. It's not my fault the rest of the world are raising obese kids that get diabetes for not knowing how to be healthy. I wanted to be in the air force. I know my life is not ideal, you don't have to shove it back in my face. Another thing that makes me mad is that the first thing you learn when studying medicine is not to judge the patient or their history. There's a reason for that rule, so why don't they follow it ?
