Mental Health and diabetes

In this video, we will discuss the impact diabetes can have on your mental health, including what Diabetes Distress is and how it can affect daily diabetes management and overall wellbeing. We’ll also share practical coping strategies, support resources, and when it may be time to seek additional help. 

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, frustrated, burnt out, or discouraged by diabetes, you are not alone. Support is available, and taking care of your mental health is an important part of managing your overall health.
