I have been diagnosed with chronic depression last year, so I will be on antidepressents for life. Since I have started Atkins in March, I have been feeling terrific, keeping on the dose the doctor recommended, but suddenly, over the last few days I have been feeling funky, sad and weepy. Not my TOM, and I can't think of anything that is stressful right now.
I was mowing my lawn yesterday and crying the whole time. I want to sleep, and I actually want to eat tons of carbs (bread, donuts, chocolate)
which used to be my comfort foods.
I slept ,cried and ate protein. I want to stay with the WOE, as it makes me feel good, but it is hard,when I get this down.
My DH runs away when I am feeling this way, he does not know how to help......
I am grateful for this Atkins web site, and I am also grateful for this particular section.
I just needed to express myself, and thank you all for being a strong shoulder to cry on.
