Abstract

 This study investigates the effectiveness and necessity of a comprehensive social support system for adolescents living with diabetes. Adolescents face unique physical, psychological, and social challenges that can complicate diabetes management. The research analyzes current social support mechanisms, including family, peer, school, and healthcare-based interventions, and identifies gaps in the system. Findings indicate that multi-level support programs, integrating emotional, educational, and practical assistance, significantly improve adherence to treatment, self-management skills, and overall quality of life. Recommendations are provided for enhancing social support structures to better address the needs of adolescents with diabetes.
