Hi everyone,
I have been struggling with anxiety for the past week. It seems to come and go like waves throughout my body. I have just started reading the book as suggested and I have slowly become less resistant to starting step one. I am not eating a whole lot of sugar because of my diabetes. Today was the first day that I purposely ate sugar to numb and check out. I have a life-long history of depression. I usually experience several signs, before I am well on my way to full-blown depression. I start being unable to sleep, I become extremely irritable, and I have bouts of anxiety.
I have come to understand that I am most intolerant of any medication used to treat depression. (Believe Me, I Have Tried Them All). At this point, I am just starting to see my process starting, and I want to nip it in the bud; I am not yet fully engaged in a depressive cycle.
I am open to any and all suggestions.
