As we celebrate World Diabetes Awareness Month, we aim to shed light on the importance of overcoming stigmas associated with diabetes and mental health-related complexities. As individuals, we hold the power to foster an inclusive and safe environment for people living with diabetes by being aware and compassionate at home, in the workplace, at school, and within our social circles. The first step towards progress is normalising conversations about these vital topics. We can turn ourselves into advocates and supporters by creating welcoming spaces where such dialogues are embraced and valued. We have curated some ideas to tackle diabetes stigma.
