Hi everyone.

I read Potatoes not Prozac about a dozen years ago and managed to get refined sugar out of my life. However, I find that even whole fruit, even just one apple makes me feel "off". And it's always a mental feeling of feeling disconnected, constantly judging myself, judging others, feeling like nobody would want to be with me, etc.

It's very subtle. I don't get a sugar crash, like falling asleep but my whole mood just changes.My ambition and optimism goes and it feels like I just need to survive. So I stay in after work and do want to go anywhere.

Today I was super careful after a couple of days of feeling off and today my good mood returned. If I have anything, even supposedly healthy but has sugar in it, I'm at a low ebb for two days.

Can anybody relate to this very subtle but definite change from even a small amount of sugar?

Thanks for reading.
