The Impact of Diabetes on Mental Health
Can’t Be Ignored |
May is Mental Health Awareness Month. The mental health impact of diabetes is a serious concern. From the financial burden to discrimination, to feeling isolated and experiencing diabetes burnout, the American Diabetes Association® (ADA) aims to tackle some of the day-to-day mental challenges of people with diabetes by:
-
Supporting national, local, and grassroots advocacy efforts
-
Addressing health care disparities to ensure equitable access for all
-
Fighting for insulin affordability and other financial burdens
-
Helping combat discrimination
-
Providing resources to aid with diabetes management, care, and prevention
-
Funding critical research to find a cure
Your most generous donation today will let people living with diabetes know they are not alone. Will you give today to show your support? |
