You will laugh at me when I say this, but giving up the grains and sugar has been amazing for my mental health. Do it. This dip in mood has been a build up of some things I have been coasting over, hoping that I could see myself through to the New Year. Seeing a photo of Mr Ex's lovely Champion Bodybuilder was the tipping point.
Hang in there BeckyB. I know my anxiety demons have little to do with Mr Ex of his new partner. These are old wounds healing. They just surprise me sometimes when I bang the not so healed scars against a sharp object.
