A member asked:

Hello, i was diagnosed gestational diabetes yesterday and completely depressed. what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lots of things: 1. Be glad it was caught and know it's very treatable. 2. Now you can eat right, probably a good thing, yes ? 3. Join a support group and find others going though similar. 4. Talk therapy if needed. 5. It's really not too bad if you follow what your gonna be taught.
