Doctors say that the disease can manifest itself at any age, and its cause can be psychosomatics.
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic endocrine disease. It appears due to the fact that the body is not able to produce enough insulin. The first type of diabetes is characterized by the fact that a person lacks insulin, and the second by the fact that he cannot perceive it. The disease can manifest itself at any age, and its cause can be psychosomatics. Psychiatrist Dmitry Popov spoke about how the psyche can cause illness.
Stress in childhood provokes type 1 diabetes
According to the specialist, more than half of children with type 1 disease grew up in a family where their parents divorced. Due to prolonged feelings of fear and disgust, the child develops insulin deficiency. This is also facilitated by his subconscious resistance to the current situation.
It takes a lot of energy for the body to psychologically fight the feeling of anxiety and resist it. And its presence depends on blood sugar. The pancreas reacts to this, lowering insulin levels and raising sugar.
Don’t accumulate stress!
The second type of diabetes mellitus appears in people in adulthood. But this does not mean that it cannot be caused by the psyche. Popov believes that over the course of many years, problems, irritation and fear accumulate inside a person, and then the body breaks into compensation and ignores insulin.
This was confirmed by gastroenterologist-nutritionist Nuria Dianova. The development of diabetes mellitus can begin due to stress. Over time, the pancreas cannot perform its functions efficiently and a person’s nervous behavior can provoke the disease.
