Abstract

Objective: To analyze the talk-in-interaction of individuals living with diabetes regarding questions about autonomy and self-care. Methods: This was a qualitative study with educational group sessions using a problematizing methodology with nine participants. Results: Five categories emerged: autonomy and self-care; food; diabetes complications; pharmacological treatment; and lifestyle habits. The results presented herein refer to the autonomy and self-care category. There was difficulty in adapting the guidelines given by the health team to the reality of individuals in their biopsychosocial context. A lack of access to health services and social and family support were also observed. Conclusion: The analysis of the participants’ perceptions revealed difficulties in diabetes treatment related to each individual’s daily life and access to treatment. Analyzing the demands and difficulties of individuals with diabetes, within their various realities, can help in building bridges between knowledge about the disease and changes in attitude toward its treatment, providing autonomy and self-care.
