Managing diabetes isn’t just about numbers—it’s also about handling the emotional toll that comes with it. In this episode, Dr. Steve Edelman and Dr. Jeremy Pettus sit down with leading diabetes psychologist Dr. Bill Polonsky to unpack the mental health side of living with diabetes. From feeling overwhelmed by constant decision-making to dealing with burnout, they explore the real-life emotional challenges people with diabetes face every day. You’ll learn how to recognize the signs of diabetes distress, how it’s different from clinical depression, and where to find support that actually helps.
