EMOTIONAL WELLNESS RESOURCES

A Toolkit for Well-Being

Supporting Your Emotional Wellness Journey

At Mississippi Diabetes Network, we understand the importance of emotional well-being in overall health. Explore our curated collection of resources designed to support and enhance your mental health, offering guidance, coping strategies, and support for various emotional challenges.

Curated for You

Our emotional wellness resources are carefully compiled from reputable sources, including academic institutions, the American Diabetes Association (ADA), and DiabetesEducation.net. These resources offer a wealth of information and support, from therapy and counseling services to support groups and self-help tools, tailored to meet your emotional wellness needs. Whether you’re seeking professional guidance or looking for ways to enhance your mental health on your own, our resources are here to help you on your journey.

We understand firsthand the challenges that come with managing chronic disease and especially diabetes. We encourage all our patients to seek out the care you need especially as it relates to your physical and emotional health. Emotional health concerns and needs are often left untreated and unsupported, and we want to change that as well as improve the stigma around seeking support for emotional health. Good emotional health is critical to achieving positive health outcomes and improving quality life. There are both in person options as well as virtual online options available today and depending on your insurance, such services are often well covered.

While almost impossible to provide an exhaustive and comprehensive list, we want to support you in finding appropriate, fitting behavioral health care, and counseling services. Please reach out to us if you would like support finding such services in your geographical area.
