To buddy and bbwlady-
Diabetics are often depressed and it seems like
it more than just feeling ‘down’ because you have a
chronic disease. There may be actual biochemical changes
in the brain over time that cause the depression.
Talk to your doctors about this. My doctor, in fact,
approached me saying that chronic depression in diabetics is
often overlooked by the medical profession. I ended up
on Prozac, which doesn’t make it ‘all better’ but
does improve my coping skills. -Dona
