Carbs to cure anxiety...? Maybe!

[Atheria]

Just wanted to post a quick update to say that my panic disorder is increasingly improving. I've only had 2 major episodes since July, and they were justified (scary flight and moving out of my house when I wasn't 100% sure the sale was going through). My blood sugar control is getting better and better, which I'm sure is also affecting my panic/anxiety issue. I'm able to go out now, and often forget that I have hypoglycemia or panic issues. I'm starting to feel normal again for the first time in years. I'm so thrilled! It's forward momentum. The better I feel and do, the better I do. Now, do I take my body and mind for granted? No. I do still eat 6 times a day and have emergency supplies with me, just in case, but I'm hopeful I can get my life back.

Potato-ly,
Atheria

Atheria,
Were you on the old board on the vegsource site?

Really good to see that your are being persistant with Mcd and it is helping.

Hi Faith,

Yes I was! Since then, my diet has been all over the place vegan and then I had to quit vegan for years when I became VERY VERY hypoglycemic in 11/2010. I've only been able to get back to vegan since last year. Right now I just quit McDougalling again due to major (and getting worse) digestive woes. Check out the constipation post. I'm very frustrated. I'm staying vegan though.

Peace,
Atheria
