Since being diagnosed with pre diabetes I have noticed an increase in my anxiety level. I suffer from depression and anxiety and take a mitt full of medications. I need to talk with my doctor about this diagnosis.
It has affected my mental health since I was pre-diabetic. I have social anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, psychosis and OCD. I take two tablets of Sertraline (200 mg) for depression and Risperidone 2 mg for my hallucinations.
