Living with Diabetes

Studies show that people with diabetes have an elevated risk of depression. The stress of daily diabetes management can build. You may feel alone or set apart from your friends and family. If you are having trouble keeping your blood glucose levels where you'd like, or if you're experiencing sexual problems, you may feel like you're losing control of your diabetes.

Whatever you're feeling, you're not alone! Reaching out to the diabetes community can help. If you are constantly experiencing sadness or hopelessness, however, it may be time to seek help from a mental health professional.
