Abstract
Thirty-nine percent of individuals living with diabetes experience distress related to the demands of living with the disease and its comorbidities. Diabetes distress (DD) refers to the worries and anxieties associated with living with diabetes. It is related to poorer glycemic control, health outcomes and adherence to diabetes self-care recommendations than the presence of depressive symptoms. Although clinical practice guidelines recommend regular screening for psychological distress, screening has yet to be adopted as a standard of practice in most diabetes clinics.
