Is there any chance that diabetes is a consequence of stress? When the emotional state normalizes, will the disease go away? Is it possible to eliminate insulin through a proper diet?

Diabetes mellitus type 1 can be the result of severe stress, although this is not a fully proven mechanism. On the other hand, the improvement of the emotional state will not reverse the symptoms of already revealed diabetes. With a proper diet, you can eliminate the use of insulin only in type 2 diabetes, while in type 1 insulin must be used, because there is irreversible damage to the pancreas.
