Diabetes is a serious disease posing a public health problem in our country, since it affects a great number of productive age persons, causing, if uncontrolled, deleterious effects on their life quality and expectancy because of vascular and neural complications.

They were receiving different doses of oral hypoglycemic agents. The group of patients met once a week for two-hour sessions in with they received: a) information about diabetes mellitus, b) self-care training and c) profound relaxation techniques.
