Anxiety and Diet.

[jitters]

How does your Anxiety affect your Diet. Either through choice (i.e. I eat a lot of sweets and chocolate this makes me feel better.) or through necessity (i.e. I can no longer drink alcohol or caffine as these trigger off my anxiety.)?

I avoid caffiene like the plague cause it gets me wound up, I still occasionally drink alcohol but find it affects my ability to be rational so avoid it most of the time.

I stay away from sugar too, partly for anxiety, partly to not get fat.

I've stopped eating lots of chocolate if my blood sugar feels low. I go for a banana or apple instead.

It seems that I can't drink hard liquor anymore. I tried to take a sip of some sake over the weekend and I almost got sick!

I try to limit my alcohol intake to just 3-4 beers over the weekend.
