UPDATE: I AM OUT OF CONTROL
Here's my situation. I posted earlier about my very low carb diet and feelings of severe depression. I was going nuts and eating up carbs like they were going out of style. I saw my psychiatrist on Tuesday and explained my situation. He did indeed agree that I had a lack of serotonin. I was also very anxious as well as losing sleep. He increased my antidepressant as well as added antianxiety meds and a sleep med. He did say there was a link between my moods of depression and not eating carbs. Here's the thing.......since Dr. Nadzam put me on the protein and veggie diet to reduce belly fat, I have been losing steadily. Ihave an appt with him on Monday and don't know how to handle it. I mean. I just had this chemical imbalance in my body and I am afraid he will think I am just another overeater. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Thanks Julio! I may have him connect with my psychiatrist if need be. I know he is a great guy. I guess I have to just let the extra meds take over and I will be in a better frame of mind. It is just hard for me to see that now.B ut I know I will soon. It's been a tough couple of months for me.......my Mom has had three surgeries and is in a rehab facility, On top of all that, my own surgery was unsuccessful and on top of all that.............I TURN 50 ON THURSDAY!!!!!!! Oh well, at least I am not pregnant.
