Does anyone else experience this?
I've suffered from bad anxiety for 8 years now, there have been good times and bad times, but I feel like I know this beast very well. I always find after eating a meal my anxiety increases, I feel agitated, restless, but this feels physical. I also get very fatigued sometimes, like I just want to lie down and nap.
I've tried a many of things. I've been tested for diabetes with both a fasting, and non fasting blood test. I don't have it, though I've never got my blood taken when i've had one of these episodes.
I've tried not eating gluten, going on a very restricted diet, but it doesn't help, and I lose way too much weight, that I'm trying to build back up right now.
I feel like body reacts to food somehow, maybe it's hypoglycaemia of some sort? I'm not sure, just curious to see if anyone else feels this way. I also get reflux, but these feelings feel unrelated to that. It's more than just thought based anxiety because it feels like a physical reaction to food. Maybe I'm just more intuned with my body so I notice these changes?
Carbs definitely effect me the most, but like I said when I stop eating them I lose a lot of weight, and I'm starting to gain a bit now and I'm more comfortable with my body.
Who else gets these feelings?
