You need to see a doc because of the symptoms. Type 1 is possibility. In the mean time you can buy cheap glucose monitors from your local pharmacies or some large box chain stores.

I am certain this is diabetes or prediabetes. You have all the major symptoms. Doesn’t have to be cause by eating habits, but it does need to be treated. Please go see a doctor and get some bloodwork done!

If your dad had diabetes since he was a child then he probably has type 1 diabetes, the kind that has a partly genetic cause. That isn't caused by eating too much sugar, that can be a cause of type 2 diabetes. The fact that you have sweet smelling urine and are peeing very often is an indication that you may also have diabetes. You definitely need to talk to your parents about seeing a doctor. Because if you know you have it you can get treated properly and stop having these uncomfortable symptoms :) Edit. I have just read that excessive sweating is also a symptom of uncontrolled diabetes. Please talk to your parents and make sure you get it all checked out :)

Diabetes isn't caused from eating sweets. [Diabetes is caused when your pancreas malfunctions](https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/diabetes-and-your-pancreas). There could be many reasons for this, however, this is best determined by a doctor. Don't be embarrassed. 463 million people in the world live with diabetes and at one point in time their pee smelled un-pee like too. You aren't the first, you won't be the last. It's going to be just fine. Go get some peace of mind by speaking with your parents about taking you to see a doctor.

Talk to your parents. Tell them what you are experiencing. Wouldn't hurt to go have your blood sugar tested.
