Aim: Type 1 diabetes which is a chronic metabolic disease can affect the quality of life of a person. The aim of this study is to evaluate the life quality of diabetic children and adolescents who are diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus and compare the perceptions of life quality through the life quality scale before and after summer camp. Materials and Method: A scale of life quality was applied to 31 children/adolescents with type 1 Diabetes Mellitus between ages 9-16 years in the Diabetes Summer Camp. Results: The perceived quality of life of children / adolescents with type 1 diabetes were better after diabetes camp (p< 0.05). When the Quality of Life Scale scores compared by gender, it was found that the emotional well-being and self esteem subscale scores and the total scores of boys were statistically significantly higher after diabetes camp. But the Quality of Life Scale scores of girls did not show a significant increase. Conclusion: This study showed that the diabetes camp, which promoted the ability of diabetic children and adolescents to manage their illnesses, changed the perception of quality of life of male diabetic patients in particular. However, repeating similar studies involving a larger number of cases will allow better evaluation of the results of such activities.

“…Findings from studies in diabetes indicate that greater use of avoidant (or emotion-focused) coping strategies such as wishful thinking in response to stress is related to poorer metabolic control 21,22 and poorer psychosocial outcomes, including lower reported quality of life, more depressive symptoms, and lower social competence. 22 In contrast, greater use of approach (or problem-focused) coping strategies has been related to better metabolic control and better psychosocial adjustment in youths with type 1 diabetes.…”

“…Early diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric conditions coexisting and complicating DM management have been shown to improve treatment outcomes such as hemoglobin A1C levels (36). DM, when diagnosed early in life in young children and adolescents has profound effects on psychological development leading to lifelong patterns of faulty coping mechanisms including self-destructive behaviors, aggressiveness, anxieties about their disease state, and not being able to utilize healthy coping skills leading to disengagement and poor adherence (36).…”

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a debilitating chronic illness with complex pathophysiological, psychological, and quality of life (QoL) implications creating a constant state of turbulence. Some of these interconnections are apparent to healthcare providers and are easily addressed in a routine diabetic clinical care. However, a large number of these hidden factors that interplay with each other and impact on the physical outcomes of DM goes unnoticed by health care providers. This is a frustrating and lonely predicament for DM patients making it very difficult for them to manage their illness well. At times these patients are mislabeled as "difficult patients". In other cases they are considered to have and unnecessarily treated for psychiatric illness like depression, other mood or anxiety spectrum disorders which they may not need. In recent years clinical researcher are making strides in understanding the emotional distress a DM patient may feel and the factors contributing or perpetuating diabetes distress. This article focuses on understanding the diabetes distress and how it impacts our patients, how to screen, assess, treat and eventually prevent it from happening. The paper also attempt to bring out the major differences between diabetes distress and common psychiatric comorbidities of DM including but not limiting to major depressive disorder and other depression spectrum disorders.
