Hello everyone,
I feel like I can't do this anymore. I am so fed up with this anxiety and it only feels like it's getting worse. I'm just using this to express my feelings at the moment because I'm finding it hard to do in person with anybody.
I'm constantly on the edge and I'm so worried about have low blood sugar that I force myself to eat every 3 hours even when I don't feel physically hungry. This has been happening since April.
I can't tell anymore if its low blood sugar causing anxiety (as I Have read that it can) or if it's just all in my head. I'm only 23 a bit overweight but I try to be careful with what I eat. I was losing weight earlier this year. I actually lost 23 pounds but have gained it all back because of the blood sugar fears. I also realized that these fears interfere with my day to day life. I can't go anywhere unless I've just eaten like 10 minutes before because I'm worried I'll have a panic attack if I start to reach the 3 hour point. I'm also having troubles at work because of the same reasoning.
I thought I was doing so well. Last year was great. I got over my brain tumour anxiety and was working out regularly. This year has had so many bumps along the road. I try to work out but my low blood sugar fears keep returning and I feel like I can't do this anymore.
I want to buy a blood sugar glucose monitor but I'm also afraid of it showing me very low numbers. I'm scared that I'm actually diabetic but I also realize that it could really help me out. I'm just mentally so unstable at the moment. I finished school in April of this year after being there for 5 years. I thought it would help my anxiety finally being done but it has made it worse because my mind isn't focusing on assignments...it's all focusing on my health. :(
