Summary

Background: Diabetes-related distress (DRD) is very common among people with type II diabetes mellitus (DM). DRD led to poorer DM control and may led to adverse prognosis. Yet, there is no widely accepted or recommended DRD treatment.

Mindfulness was shown to relieve psychological distress in various physical and mental conditions.

Aim: as a pilot project, we aim to determine if mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), which is one of the widely used mindfulness program, is feasible and acceptable and may improve DRD in our Chinese population.

Method: 20 Chinese participants with suboptimally controlled DM and high DRD will be recruited to a 8- week MBCT group. Pre-group and post-group (immediate and 2-month post-group) data including DRD score, quality-of life measures will be compared.
