I’ve had type 1 diabetes for 14 years and I’m 23 now. Always been very active and played different sports as a kid so being diagnosed at 9 years old was quite a shock. Type 1 is autoimmune tho with no cure yet.
From my experience with this bs here is what I’ve learned: One thing was that the younger you are the harder it is physically to (manage) the disease. Being a kid and fully active is tough with diabetes bruh.. puberty, parties, chillings, sports are all things that play a role in managing your health with insulin but as you get older and become an adult the mental health becomes more of a problem. You begin to work more, have to start paying for your meds, your energy levels are not the same and you’re more tired than usual which can affect both your mental and physical health a long the way.
If you’re going through this disease day in and day out remember that it’s okay not to be okay sometimes but it’s not okay to stay in that phase of not feeling well cuz or else you’ll feel worse trust. My advice especially for young adults would be to talk to a psychiatrist or someone that can help you with your mental health and try to exercise regularly. That will help with the management side. Also reading books is handy too, helps distract your mind and keeps you fresh. Stay strong! LOVE YALL❤️❤️❤️❤️
I confirm every word you wrote I am 23 and 7 months yrs old diagnosed prior to my 23rd birthday. The amount of frustration anxiety is unimaginable. It happened that I encountered a family fight and issues prior to my diabetes symptoms appeared. I am so depressed and isolated from people I dropped university and looking forward to go back sooner not later hopefully.
I’m a type 1 dm with having mental issues related to that, you sound so relatable, can I have your contact info?.?
I cry in depression because of this horrible disease . I cry to GOD ait for help 🙏 to heal this depressing illness because He is our Creator and Lord 🙏 GOD 🙏 to get us out of this dreadful situation. We are living in a World 🌎🌍 of Sickness, and Wars, and Pestilences, Murders, Violence , etc... Hate, etc... When we die we go to a better Place where there's No Sickness ...only happiness . So hang in there people and don't cry anymore but pray 🙏 to Heavenly Father 🙏💖 and eat well and be happy . GOD BLESS 🙏❤️ US 🙏❤️ ALL 🙏💖.
Thank you for sharing those words of encouragement. I so needed to read your message. Kudos to the Dr but she missed the mark.
This is wonderful. So true; not sleeping and high cortisol, and having to be vigilant about food all the time is enough to cause or exacerbate depression.
I’ve been Diabetic for 3 years having high blood sugars make me tired and thirsty and stressed or brought me to tears because I hate having high blood sugars
I can relate! Now I am getting angry with my blood sugar fluxes and that is a bad thing!
What a shame they didnt have a camera on your slides. Great talk.
High Bg is the confounder and is primary causal to this whole process. T1d over 35 years, nutritional scientist and degree in physcology. All roads lead to high bg, its the chicken and egg. The diet being the start to the cure for all but t1ds when the damage atm is more challenging to cure.... Not giving up on this... Fasting has a profound effect on bg control. I'm on keto or switch to lchf. Daily IF. Many OMAD also. N1 study but huge correlation links to many things.
Good talk as said. X
This is fascinating. Thank you for making this video public!
She's such a boss. Great video. I could listen to her all day.
I am living with someone who has severe blood sugar issues. He's on metformin but I think he needs more. He's argumentative and cruel. He's never happy. He's so bi=polar and I am walking on egg shells all the time. I actually live in fear. Everything is my fault and I am growing weary.
I feel you! My step son has type 1 and he’s only 9 years old but I swear he’s an evil child. He throws temper tantrums all of the time and says mean things, always mean to me, his dad and his mom. I think it’s because his blood sugar is all over the place and he can’t control himself. It’s sooo hard! I too live in slight fear thinking more about the future when he’s older, going through puberty and even more aggressive. That combined with the blood sugar issues is not going to be a pretty picture. 🫣😬
I'm a type 2 diabetic blood sugar when my blood sugar goes off the rails a little bit I can see a meanness come out of me that is not normal! I've always been very very happy go lucky and very optimistic but when the blood sugar is off it's like you're fighting yourself and you in turn fight others who may love you!!! I'm apologizing for them people need to monitor their blood sugar and eat better!!! This way we can start being assholes to the people who really love us!!!
I am living in the same fear as the person above my daughter just visits the fear is the same his behaviour exactly as person above
Maybe they need to take sublingual vitamin b12
Curse of Life today. Diabetes. Worse than smoking.
It's actually not worse than smoking for each person, but it's way more common than smoking, thank God. My stepmother worked in a cardiac unit and smoking is way worse than obesity for the heart, for example. That's in addition to the damage to the lungs and the cancer aspect. But obesity is terrible.
She speaks so eloquently and not to mention easy on the eyes. She could be my anti-depressant and insulin anytime.
I believe I was suffering from depression and irritability before I was diagnosed with type 2. Now that I am on Metformin along with diet and more exercise, both declined significantly. I would say I was showing signs of depression 6-7 month prior. Which was frustrating since I’ve never had to deal with depression before.
Thank you for sharing. It's been 4 months since your comment, how is your depression now?
Awesome! Thank you.
This has been very helpful. Thank you very much.
This should go viral! OUTSTANDING and I even understood most of it. Always like new content that is practical yet challenging. To 10 of ever list of Western civilization.
Thank you for posting!
Fantastic presentation, wish i was seeing the slides you were referring to during your lecture
Great information here !
I realized recently that mood disorders come with diabetes in that it can cause bad anger issues! Good wake-up call for me! To be hyper vigilant with battling the disease, it’s no wonder anger and depressed mood come with it! Glad ai started searching RUclips on this. I am trying to find therapy for this.
Do a TedX Talk Dr. Golden. This is great!
I wanted to tell you, five years after you’ve posted this, I’ve been having the “scratch the back of my head” - AH!-HA! moment all instructors enjoy seeing.
Now, make a Cortisol “Narcan” so we can all calm down a bit.
Very good information
People with diabetes , like my dad, feel depressed about "knowing about the disease" and that " they are not allowed to have the sweets they love"
Winston Chang they can have the sweets they love, they just need to have the insulin injection
@@Daniel-xd8wo, thanks for your comment....good health to you , Daniel
it’s not even that man. it’s the high blood sugars that make you eat endlessly and make you feel fat, it’s the stress, the low sugars, there’s so many factory’s for me as a type 1 diabetic. the mood swings are horrible.
Winston Chang your fucking ignorant We are depressed because there is no cure
Caleb Brown I agree I wanted to join the marine corps as a child but a couple days ago I learnt I cant
Your voice is so pleasing.
my complex ptsd has lead to me making bad choices like just lying in bed and eating a lot of junk and just lying in bed that led to me getting diabetes
Me too but Dr. Berg and Kato saved my life in many ways. It took months before my mind and body began to heal but 100% it works. I hope you come up with a game plan and have hope in hope.
Type 1 is harder
Type 1 IS harder, but all of the commercials on TV regarding Type 2 Diabetes make it look like a walk in the park. There are so many systems throughout the entire system which can be affected over time. I think they need to do more to educate newly diagnosed Type 1’s. I ended up becoming a Type 1 one year after a nearly fatal car accident. The cascading downfall since then just keeps me going downhill fast. It is as though my diabetes is on the fast track. The doctors have explained that the trauma of the accident IS what has most likely caused my diabetes complications to show up much earlier than most. So for those of you who are Type 1, be vigilant in taking great care of yourself. I have learned how important water consumption is so that you do not become dehydrated - which can spike your sugars. Getting sick to your stomach for more than six hours with high blood sugars means you need to go the ER as you do not want to slip into a case of Diabetic Ketoacidosis (left untreated this can lead to coma and/or death). Gastroparesis is a complication which mimics the flu, so if you feel sick for weeks go see a Gastroenterologist and ask for testing. This can mess with the blood sugars as your stomach is slow to empty which can make your sugars go low. Then later they go high once the food finally makes it’s way out of the stomach. This is also and autonomic condition which can lead to problems above and below the stomach. The esophagus can start shutting down. The muscles in the pelvic reason shut down which can lead to incontinence. Turns out this can be called a “diabetic bladder”. What? My urologist having worked with me for 4 years with meds, physical therapy, and even surgery to get a pacemaker for the bladder has not helped. So that is when I was told that diabetics are sometimes known to produce more urine than most people, so they say the urine then “spills over”. Also, get your bloodwork done as often as able. I have only mentioned that which I have dealt with and continue to deal with. I am sharing all of this as so that you can learn what to be aware of. Most Type 1’s do NOT deal with all of this, my trauma from the accident is what has put all of this in motion for the last 15 years. I give thanks daily to the internet for a place of knowledge and I always end my sessions with funny videos, or singing videos, etc. Anything so I can be at peace for the rest of the day. I have also been dealing with Major Depressive Disorder, Anxiety and PTSD all to keep my chronic pain company. But I have great boyfriend and we have a lovely home with 2 dogs and I have learned that being home alone is actually quite nice. My life was spent on high speed before the accident, so I have learned to let others help me and to know when I need extra help. Also, one last thing I recently learned - your insurance may give you a Nurse as a Case Manager if you DO end up with a lot of complications. This has been a godsend for me. So keep up the good work, take great care and thank you Dr. for posting this video.
as a 17 type 1 diabetic, when schools in session my stress jumps causing my sugar to be high and i lay in bed all day, eat garbage, pass out, and have hair loss. the mood swings hit hard.
GAD! She is masterful! 😍
I am a juvenile type 2 diabetic and there is almost nothing for a teen type 2 diabetic. I went through hell of depression and I still can't take my pills.
My parents are diabetic and they are depressed. They don't laugh or smile and put others down. I avoid them if i can. Try to go inward, love yourself, find a hobby or a passion. Sometimes we need to drop family and friends. I stop being a people pleaser. Go out in nature, drop bad habits, be mindful. I have this say " i can read all the self help books, but the question i ask myself is how am i feeling right now and what can i do about it? Took me a long time to get where i am now. Thoughts are things. Take care.
DR. Berg saved my life from being fat, sad and stuck in a rut.
type 1 diabetes throws me in horrible mood swings
Very interesting
Hello, I am currently starting a private research paper into the link between Diabetes and Mental Illness. Would you be able to assist me in my research? 🐰
Hi Michael, you can learn more here: www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/media/releases/depression_and_diabetes_fellow_travelers_researchers_say.
What about type 2
I have type 2 diabetes and I have depression life sucks
I got type 1 diabetes and everyday is hard
So i am not the only depressed one
Type 1 diabetes is harder than type 2 diabetes you can cure type 2 diabetes you can’t cure type 1 diabetes
Hi Sheronda, I just said a prayer for everyone who posted illness of the mind, body and soul. Please, please, utilize a therapist, even try going to church, finding a practice that could help calm the mind so you can walk in the healing I have just prayed for you. Peace and Blessings.
I also have Type 2 and depression and anxiety
I'm 20 years old and have prediabetes... I guess I could just call it full blown diabetes because it has happened to me anyway. I suffer from depression from time to time but I don't think I have it because of the fact that I'm diabetic
You have to be strong and fight 💪!!!
Same here
@@00kidney You can be strong for so long, this disease can be very difficult there’s more to it than just the diet and exercise, trying to manage it daily, can be mentally draining for some. Remember we’re not all the same, it effects everyone differently and it depends on your doctor to and what kind of support you get from them, and your family and friends. It’s the same when you go through losing a loved one if the support isn’t there it makes it 10 x harder, to deal with. I’ve been there with diabetes and losing my mom 3 years after my diabetes diagnosis, I was doing really good with my diabetes then after my wonderful mom passed away from Cancer within a few months from when we found out she had cancer, I was a mess, my diet went out the window, I was very overwhelmed that my mom died, it was such a sudden loss. I really needed even more support living with diabetes and going through a significant loss, the grief was intense. I didn’t feel like doing anything I was devastated. There was no support for a diabetic going through such anguish. At that time I was dealing with severe shoulder injury and lower back issues, so exercising was nonexistent, I gained most of my weight back. Now dealing with the same shoulder but a different injury, and ongoing back issues, where is the help, nobody gives a damn about ppl with any type of diabetes, you can’t just take a holiday from it when life hits you hard, I have so much stress from trying to heal from my moms passing and dealing with pain and diabetes. I get very upset when ppl say you can do it, lots a ppl have diabetes ect. But do they have it no they don’t, you don’t know till you walk in my shoes. Diabetes isn’t a “ walk in the park” I suffer everyday and what ppl say who aren’t diabetic have no idea, so educate yourself. And quit assuming it’s nothing. We fight everyday to manage this awful disease so we don’t get complications. And it can be very tiring. We don’t have the freedom to eat what we please, we cry a lot living with this disease we get so fustrated when are sugars aren’t on target range, we have to be always one step a head of meals. I can go on and on but ppl really don’t understand, so what’s the use. To all non diabetics treat diabetics as normal as possible and be kind🌸
2 reasons why they are linked. The National Highway Transportation Safety administration's attitude towards type 1 diabetics and the way people treat those that have type 1 diabetes. I have felt like a criminal most of my life just because of how people regard me as too crippled to perform basic daily life activities such as driving to work, the grocery store, the pharmacy. These are tasks necessary for daily life and the ability to satisfy those needs being under constant threat certainly causes me to think that death can seem easier than going through life. So as a result I have anxiety and depression
Many people found strenght in sickness and live even better lives. We all have our inner strenght, no matter what you feel now. And feelings are not permanent. Those are all thoughts (and we think over 50,000 thoughts a day!) and you can change all. Just wake up your spite, your inner warrior.
Skip the first five minutes.
I'm sooo over t2 not being able to eat anything tasty I'm at the point of just eating what I want and not living past 65 ...it's just just sucks the genetics that we carry !!!
I have PTSD then depression then diabetes then high functioning autism with a brain MRI showing an abnormality near my pineal gland!
Smoking, no exercise, sedentary at the computer.
Maybe the depression comes after eating to soothe the anxiety instead of a healthier choice like Walking.
