POIS when I'm hungry
« on: August 04, 2020, 11:47:09 PM »
Guys, I feel symptoms because when I'm hungry and I wanted to know if anyone feels the same. Brain fog, weakness, headache and I feel depressed, I can't do anything when I'm hungry, I can't interact with people and I can't even think straight. Obviously, the body does not function normally when we are hungry, however, I feel that in me it is much more intense than normal. Sometimes I wake up hungry, but I prefer to lie down than get up to eat something, I lie full of sad and bad thoughts, however, I already know that I am only in that state because I am hungry and when I fill my stomach with anything , I return to normal.
(when I talk about hunger, I mean spending 3 ... 4 hours without eating anything, for example)

Thinking gets harder too, not in POISlike way tho. Some aspect of cognition is bit boosted if fasted but some worsens.

Blood sugar swings?

You can buy a blood sugar meter, they're not expensive.

"Hunger due to omitted or delayed meals can also increase the symptoms. However, it is unclear whether a state of hunger activates the mast cells or whether only a temporary undersupply of vitamins, minerals or energy leads to a reduced degradation of the mediators."

I agree with @berlin1984. Not a while ago I was taking Risperidone (can't tolerate, nose is running completely shut, pretty much the same effect as in pois, but worse, second no-no is it was sucking all the energy from me worth than in pois), but it actually was kind of ok to cure my panic/anxiety. And in some days on that pills i was not eating at all for a few days. And after the effect of pills disappeared i was having anxiety on steroids. My conclusion was that heavy anxiety at that moment was caused by ?sugar drop? it went gone in a few days after i start eating normal... what i am trying to say is that blood sugar drop anxiety effect was confusingly similar in some aspects with my regular pois.
