Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Persons with type 2 diabetes are often stigmatised for having what is considered a lifestyle-related disease. Accordingly, some blame themselves for their condition, resulting in feelings of low self-worth that ultimately impact their self-management behaviours. However, there are no studies examining why some do not blame themselves for their condition and manage to maintain their self-worth in relation to their illness. This study aimed to explore an understanding of how such persons experience the maintenance of self-worth in relation to their illness over the lifelong course of treatment. DESIGN:A cross-sectional qualitative study. Face-to-face semistructured interviews were conducted with a purposive sampling strategy. The data was analysed using a qualitative descriptive method that involved concurrent data collection and constant comparative analysis. SETTING:Two tertiary-level hospitals in Japan. PARTICIPANTS:Thirty-three outpatients with type 2 diabetes who currently had good glycaemic control but had previously had poor glycaemic control. RESULTS:Three themes explaining the maintenance of self-worth were identified: (1) Participants gained 'control' over their illness by living a 'normal life.' They found a way to eat preferred foods, dine out with family and friends, travel and work as usual; (2) Participants discovered the positive aspects of type 2 diabetes, as they felt 'healthier' from the treatment and felt a sense of security and gratitude for the care they received from healthcare professionals; (3) Participants discovered a new sense of self-worth by moving towards goals for type 2 diabetes treatment and experienced inner growth through positive lifestyle choices. CONCLUSIONS:The process of restoring and maintaining self-worth should be brought to the attention of healthcare professionals in diabetes care. These professionals could help patients discover positive self-representations through diabetes treatment (eg, a realisation that one does not lack self-control) and could aid in increasing patient engagement in diabetes self-management.
