1. Diabetes -- Tips for Those With a Diabetic Spouse
BY Doreen Lynnkom
Diabetes presents many challenges to those who suffer from the disease, but their spouses may also struggle
with worry, resentment, and fear as they share the diabetic experience.
Fatigue, mood swings, and agitation are not uncommon feelings for spouses of diabetics. But there are ways for
spouses to help themselves and their partners to cope with the disease constructively. If you are in that
situation, here are a few tips. Learning to let go -- to be supportive rather than directive -- is the first step for
spouses, and perhaps the hardest. While it's tempting to criticize to help keep the diabetic on track, it's also
counterproductive.
Being told what to do and what to eat can lead to conflict, stubbornness, and feelings that the disease is a
greater burden than it really is.
Hold back a little on the advice. Instead, lead by example. To do this, eat right yourself. The perfect diet
for a diabetic is also the perfect diet for most people. Get healthy together. Simply don't bring the bad stuff
into the house, and be sure to include exercise in your daily schedules.
Knowing and making lifestyle adjustments is a big challenge, but if you visit the doctor and dietician
together to get the required training it will be easier.
Should feelings of resentment about your new role arise, just remember that the shoe could easily be on the
other foot. Disease or accident can strike anyone, and if you were afflicted you would want the same level of
support you are now required to provide.
Another way to help is to encourage discussion about diabetes and its effects. Your spouse should feel free to
disclose whatever feelings, ills, or moods that develop so they can be addressed quickly.
If a dark mood develops, it's best to know beforehand what would help the most so that feelings of resentment
and isolation are avoided. Should you suggest some activity together, or just remain silent until the mood
passes?
The most important thing the spouse of a diabetic person can do is to research the disease. Know what diabetes
is and what it isn't. Through open communication and a healthy family lifestyle, you can conquer most of the
challenges diabetes presents.
