Reply to comment by [deleted] in Insulin modulates emotional behavior through a serotonin-dependent mechanism - impaired insulin-sensitivity in these DR 5-HT neurons is critical for the development of T2D-associated mood disorders. by Meatrition

Like the other poster said there is a know link between type 1 and depression. This is talking about insulin resistance though. Which while type 1s can develop insulin resistance it is a key facet of type 2 diabetes. Type ones with insulin resistance used to be called type 1.5 because it effectively having type 1 while also having type 2.

I always heard it referred to as delayed onset type 1 by endocrinologists. It is possible it was referred to as 1.5 at some point though. Most of my terminology comes out of late 90s early 00s when I was participating in medical studies for diabetes. I'm obviously still diabetic but I just see a GP now since specialists are expensive and hard to get in to see. So I don't have as much up-to-date terminology and things have changed a lot in the last decade.
