Yesterday I felt the worst I have probably ever felt.
...I'd been to the gym the day be for for the first time in a long time; I also had smoked a fair bit, and today seem to have some king of lung infection.
But, I had this awful nervy feeling and once or twice felt like I could just burst into tears. And I experienced feeling that agitation that contrinuted to me losing my last job -only it was a little more acute even.
I found my self wanting to eat to change the feeling -and I ate a lot of bread. Later at night, I felt better; and this may have been due to drinking tea -which had sugar in it- since I felt better just after drinking it.
....It wouldn't surprise me if sugar levels and mood problems are connected. I looked such a thing up on the internet -googling: blood sugar and mood -and found the following useful site.....

Read through it all, since it is very short, but includes what may be helpful to take to ease depression (and anxiety of course). Chromium improves insulin function which supposedly increases levels of tryptophan and serotonin in the brain, and in this way having a considerable effect on mood -and even weight gain/loss. ....For certain patients, taking chromium worked better than antidepressants for improving their mood.
So, it is worth reading about this, and looking into it further.
....What if a good deal of problems to do with anxiety and depression are about diet and the body...?
