[QUOTE="Molly56, post: 620674, member: 84857"] As the partner of someone with type 2 diabetes I would also suggest that counselling be extended to carers and family members as it is often them that have to deal with the issues alongside the person with the diabetes. In my case my partner is not dealing with his diabetes and as a result of this it has impacted on my own emotional health and wellbeing.......I am currently seeking counselling for myself to deal with the emotional issues involved and to see how I can better help him to manage his diabetes whilst maintaining my own physical and mental health. Diabetes affects both the person themselves and those around them so support should be offered where needed to all those affected by this not just the diabetic patient. [/QUOTE]
