A member asked:

Are there relationships between diabetes and mental disorders?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: That is a vague question, but yes there is a relationship. People with diabetes have a higher tendency to develop depression and anxiety than people without diabetes. There are some drugs used for psychiatric disorders that can cause diabetes. And people with mood disorders or other psychiatric disorders have a more difficult time managing their diabetes.
