Internet-based interventions can significantly reduce depressive symptoms and diabetes-specific emotional distress in adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

If you have diabetes and are struggling with depression, consider using a guided internet-based self-help program. These programs can be effective in reducing depressive symptoms and emotional distress, and they offer a private way to get help.
