ooooh just another question is sugary drinks and snacks good or bad for panic attacks and anxiety ????? or does it make no difference.

[evil monkey]

hey lucas

on that question for what its worth ive been doing reading up on nutrition and stuff, and can say that pure sugary stuff will raise blood sugar fast (as opposed to raising it steadily and slowly), i dont know what effect this would happen on the rest of it. at a guess, it wouldn't help, because fast changes in blood sugar seem to be like...i dunno...bashing a glass of water, it unrests everything for a bit

it would probably give the brain a short burst of fast energy, which might not help

ah cool cheers :)
