Abstract

Objective: To analyze the emotional suffering related to type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in people assisted in primary health care. Method: Cross-sectional, quantitative study conducted in two basic health units in Ceará. The Brazilian version of the Problem Areas in Diabetes Scale was used for data collection and assessment of emotional distress. Data were collected from a primary source through home visits. Descriptive and analytical statistics were performed. The ethical principles of research with human beings were respected. Results: One hundred and thirteen (113) people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus participated in the research. Elderly, mixed race/black women, with incomplete elementary education, sedentary, non-smokers and non-alcoholics predominated. Most participants had a high degree of emotional distress. The concern with future complications and the fear of living with the disease were considered relevant problems by the participants. There was a statistically significant association between the variables sex and place of residence with a high degree of mental suffering. Conclusion: Primary care professionals need to plan nursing care aimed at emotional suffering related to type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, especially among female people who live in rural areas.
