Chaos in My Mind / myLot

St. Louis, Missouri

June 30, 2017 8:25pm CST

The past week or so have been very rough. Tempers are flaring as we work towards incorporating the new nonprofit...seems like the stress and summer heat have gotten to all of us. I got some bad news health-wise. Its appearing that I have hypoglycemia and my blood sugar is crashing in the afternoon. That plus some issues with my fiance have sent my bipolar disorder into near psychotic symptoms and paranoia That means temporarily increasing my medication to keep from having a total breakdown. I feel like I'm being pulled in about 20 different directions.

oh geez. Make sure you are eating lunch and snacks throughout the afternoon to keep the blod sugar up. My psych told me once that he suspects me of having bipolar but I have never had a manic episode in my life and certainly none of the issues that you've written about. I don't know why he thinks that I might be in that category. I'm the most mellow person ever.

Yeah it seems like I'm going to have to eat a snack around 3pm in the afternoon. Have to monitor it a bit more to see for sure.

@Lolaze Definitely eat a snack! You don't need to deal with low blood sugar issues on top of everything else.
