On the World Diabetes Day, the International Diabetes Federation highlights the critical connection between diabetes and overall well-being. While the primary focus often revolves around managing blood sugar levels, recent research uncovers the significant toll diabetes can take on mental health. According to IDF's recent global study: - 77% of individuals with diabetes encounter mental health issues such as anxiety and depression; - Nearly 80% experience diabetes burnout, resulting in physical and emotional exhaustion; - 75% of those facing burnout cease their diabetes treatment; - 75% express the need for increased well-being support from healthcare providers. The IDF advocates for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and communities to recognize diabetes's profound impact on individuals. Emphasizing well-being can improve health outcomes and enhance the quality of life for the millions worldwide managing diabetes.
