Why does having a severe mental illness increase the risk od diabetes?


and what do they class as having a severe mental health problem?

I have never heard this, but I can venture a guess. Some of the heavy duty antipsychotic drugs (zyprexa, risperdal, seroquel) that are used to treat some mental illnesses can have diabetes as a side effect.
no it dosnt

being dibetic may drive you crazy but being crazy dosnt make you dibetic there are so many myths about dibetic out it makes me crazy

being a little over weight dosnt not make you dibetic
eating suger dosnt make you dibetic

dibetis is mainly caused by a genetic defect its natures way of controling the population and those of us that are dibetic are just to stubern to die if you are completly obies im talki ng over 300 lbs there is a good chance you could become dibetic but that much weight is gona put stress on all your organs

old people tend to get dibetis well yea they are old and parts of there bodys stop working correctly just like heart and lung problems

people now a days are so worried about whats gona kill them they dont know how to enhoy life while they got it
had dibetis for 24 years was 3 years old at the time never got the taste to like suger was really good on my diet yet still screwed over royally by the desis and now at the age of 27 im dealing with all the complications from dibetis

doctors dont want to find a cure if they cured dibetis alout of doctors would be out of a job and pharmicital copanys would be out of business
The reason why persons with serious mental illness are more prone to develop diabetes are not known with certainty but may include the high prevalence of obesity in this group and the use of second-generation antipsychotic medications. Schizophrenia would be considered a serious mental disease, along with bipolar.
medication given for sever mental illness often times increase cravings for carbs and overall weight gain. So that is one theory and the other is that certain mental illness mess with the pancreas too
