An ethnographic study based on in-depth interviews with 15 men with diabetes who participate in an exercise program, in a municipality in Mexico. For a period of eleven months, the main researcher remained in contact with this community of men who belong to a support group. Content analysis was performed to group data into categories. The men expressed that in their daily lives the disease gave rise to different feelings, such as fear, anxiety, anger and sadness. These perceptions help nurses to understand the social and cultural world, comprised of beliefs, actions and interactions. The field of nursing is in need of new paradigms to provide an epistemic foundation for the care of these men living with diabetes.Sin patrcinado
