review on diabetes associated with psychological disorders among elderly people

Abstract

People over the age of 65 who have diabetes are more likely to have mental health issues. Chronic illness might have a direct or indirect impact on this outcome. Diabetic complications can also play a role. The goal of this study is to examine the relationship between the various diabetes problems and the mental health issues of depression, anxiety, and cognitive decline in the elderly diabetic population. The following are the materials and procedures used: An outpatient geriatric medicine department conducted cross-sectional research. It has been found that people with Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes are more likely to suffer from mental health concerns than the general population. Adults with T1D and T2D are at an increased risk of developing a variety of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and more severe forms of mental illness. In this review, we examine the prevalence, impact, and available therapies for these issues. Research priorities for adults with T1D and T2D have been highlighted and explored in light of the literature's implications for psychologists.
