AD We Need To Change Perspective On Diabetes — Here’s Why

What’s your first thought when you hear the word “diabetes”? If it involves overindulgence, lack of exercise, or weight problems, you wouldn’t be alone. Still, these initial thoughts could be contributing to a damaging stigma about the condition. Diabetes doesn’t necessarily discriminate but, unfortunately, people inadvertently do.

24% of people without diabetes blamed individuals with Type 2 diabetes for their condition and 3 in 10 thought people with diabetes should only consume low-sugar meals and drinks, which is an inaccurate assumption. and those living with diabetes when it comes to stigma surrounding the condition; the majority of the UK population does not recognise the stigma surrounding diabetes, despite holding misconceptions about the condition themselves.

Unsurprisingly, misconceptions about diabetes can have a big impact on those who live with it and many in the diabetes community suffer as a result of the UK public’s lack of understanding of the realities of living with this unpredictable and relentless condition. “Stigma experienced by people with diabetes is one of the largest barriers to them engaging with care and treatment,” says Professor Deborah Christie, consultant clinical psychologist and clinical lead for paediatric and adolescent psychological services at University College London Hospital’s NHS Foundation Trust. “If you feel blamed or judged in any part of your life, then it can have a significant effect on your emotional well-being and you will be less likely to engage with that area.

Nearly everyone living with diabetes surveyed, regardless of type, believes people assume they are overweight and that their condition was caused by their lifestyle and lack of exercise , which are incredibly negative perceptions to have.
