[QUOTE="Winnie53, post: 1404606, member: 160246"] [USER=29023]@ladybird64[/USER] I thought it might be helpful to post links to information about CBT. Here's an overview of 15 Common Cognitive Distortions...

[URL]https://pro.psychcentral.com/the-basic-principles-of-cognitive-behavior-therapy/00659.html/2[/URL] Regarding Sarah69 I think an important first step is to do a trial on a different medication to determine if the lack of appetite and aversion to food is a side effect which is highly likely because other members here have reported this problem. I also think it's common to question whether or not the low carb diet is desirable or doable. When I gave up gluten in 2011 I went through withdrawal. Sugar and grains are highly addictive.

Getting to that point required a lot of reading about how to do the diet and ongoing support here. Some are able to dive in and do it immediately, others won't consider it until their diabetes progresses to the point of developing diabetic complications. Most of us fall somewhere in between.
