[QUOTE="Goonergal, post: 2328520, member: 368709"] [USER=503318]@Heatherp85[/USER] Sorry to hear you’re struggling. For me, mental and physical health are very much inter-twined so it could well be that by addressing one you’ll start to deal better with the other. Lockdown/Covid and all that goes with it has been stressful for everyone so it won’t be making things any easier, but as [USER=345386]@DCUKMod[/USER] says, finding a routine for taking your meds - and I’d argue for other things (eating, sleeping, exercising) will definitely help. Reducing your carbs will definitely help with the blood sugars and for me, as my physical health improved, so did my mental health. This was reflected in increased energy levels, greater motivation for enjoying things I’d previously enjoyed but had stopped doing. It’s a cyclical thing and difficult to break, but well worth giving a shot. The Diet Doctor link provided by [USER=219467]@bulkbiker[/USER] is an excellent place to start. [/QUOTE]
