[The content of this article has been produced by our advertising partner.] Nearly one in ten people in Hong Kong now live with diabetes, and the city’s burden is growing. An ageing population, shifting lifestyles, and a substantial number of undiagnosed cases have combined to make diabetes an increasingly urgent public-health challenge2,3.

A recent global survey by Roche indicates a critical need to reframe diabetes management. The study suggests a shift from solely focusing on treating the physical aspects of the disease to also addressing the mental and emotional wellbeing of individuals living with diabetes. This change in approach is deemed essential given the growing prevalence and impact of the condition.
The survey underscores that while the physical challenges of diabetes are apparent, its less visible effects on mental health require urgent attention. The findings highlight a gap in current care models that often overlook the psychological burden carried by people with diabetes.
Addressing the mental health impact of diabetes is crucial for improving the overall quality of life and long-term health outcomes for affected individuals.
