Objective

To explore the mediating effect of self-compassion on social support and diabetes distress (DD) among community-dwelling elderly individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Methods

From June to July 2024, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among elderly T2DM patients in communities in Nanjing. The survey used the general information questionnaire, DDS, SSRS, and SCS. A multiple linear regression model was employed to examine the factors influencing DD, and the mediating effect of self-compassion was analyzed by the Bootstrap method for validation.

Results

The prevalence of DD among the respondents was 35.1%, and the scores for social support and self-compassion were (39.48±8.13) and (91.18±9.10), respectively. Social support and self-compassion were significantly positively correlated (r=0.344, P<0.001). Social support (β=-0.132, P<0.001) and self-compassion (β=-0.216, P<0.001) were the influencing factors of DD, and self-compassion exhibited a partial mediating effect in the relationship between social support and DD, accounting for 37.02% of the total effect.

Conclusion

Community healthcare workers should pay attention to the screening of DD among elderly T2DM patients, and actively explore comprehensive intervention strategies that integrate social support with self-compassion to enhance their psychological well-being.
