Loss of interest, decreased concentration and attention, feeling low and disturbed sleep or appetite are some of the signs of depression. Consult a psychiatrist who will assess you in detail. If you are feeling suicidal or hopeless, seek professional help immediately.
Try some relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation and deep breathing. Indulge in hobbies. Spend time with people close to you.
Next Steps
Given you have diabetes you cannot ignore taking medication or insulin in a proper, regular, prescribed format. You also need to pay attention to your diet and nutrition, as well as exercise. You can consult me for further treatment if required.
