Type 2 diabetes is common in people with psychiatric disorders, according to Australian and international research. The analysis of previous research found that people with sleep disorders had the highest rate of type 2 diabetes at around 40 per cent compared to the 6-8 per cent seen in the general population. Sleep disorders can include insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, parasomnias, narcolepsy, and restless leg syndrome. The study also found diabetes rates were higher for people with binge eating disorder, substance use disorder, anxiety, bipolar disorder psychosis, and schizophrenia.
