How dangerous is depression for diabetics?

Controlling the sugar level in the body is very important for diabetic patients.

If the sugar level is not controlled, people with diabetes can face many serious problems.

While food and diet are essential to control sugar level, it can also be controlled with peace of mind and satisfaction.

According to NDTV, mental stress is also among the elements that need to be paid attention to.

When a person suffers from severe mental stress, it also has a great impact on health. Apart from weight gain or loss and changes in sleep patterns, stress can also cause a person to face many problems.

When a person is under stress, certain hormones are released in the body, which increases the level of glucose in the blood, due to which people suffering from diabetes have to face problems.

Psychologist Dr. Samant Darshi says that controlling mental stress is also important because it affects blood glucose levels. When a person is under stress, hormones are released in the body that increase the level of glucose in the blood. This can be harmful for diabetics who want to control their blood sugar levels. On the other hand, due to mental stress, the blood sugar level can also be affected due to the release of 'cortisol' and 'adrenaline' hormones.

Apart from this, people suffering from diabetes can neglect their diet and exercise due to stress.

Dr. Samant Darshi adds that reducing stress is very important for people suffering from diabetes. Depression can be reduced through rest, exercise and therapy. This will give the patients comfort in every way and they will be able to maintain their health in a better way.
