Objetivo: compreender como ocorre a autogestão da prática de insulinoterapia em pessoas com diabetes acompanhadas na Atenção Primária à Saúde. Métodos: estudo qualitativo, conduzido com 60 pessoas com diabetes em uso de insulina, por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, diário de campo e análise interpretativa descritiva, com apoio do software IRaMuTeQ. A análise possibilitou a organização dos achados em três categorias temáticas. Resultados: a autogestão da insulinoterapia mostrou-se como processo complexo, dinâmico e atravessado por dimensões emocionais, sociais e estruturais. O início do uso da insulina foi marcado por medo, resistência, sofrimento e associação com agravamento da doença, sendo progressivamente ressignificado como possibilidade de controle e autonomia. As práticas cotidianas envolveram negociações entre prescrições, alimentação, monitoramento glicêmico, atividade física e ajustes terapêuticos. Também foram identificadas lacunas nas orientações recebidas, insegurança na aplicação e dependência de familiares e profissionais de saúde. Conclusão: a autogestão da insulinoterapia exige mais que domínio técnico, requerendo suporte educativo, emocional e social contínuo, centrado na pessoa e em sua realidade cotidiana. Contribuições para a prática: os achados reforçam a necessidade de fortalecer a atuação da enfermagem na educação em saúde, no acompanhamento longitudinal e no apoio à autonomia de pessoas com diabetes na Atenção Primária.
