Summary
This study tests whether a brief self-affirmation writing exercise before regular doctor visits can reduce feelings of stigma and improve diabetes management in adults with type 2 diabetes.

Researchers will measure stigma, motivation, and blood sugar control using surveys and continuous glucose monitors.
