I do feel angry when people play mind games with me .. I’m human.
Anger is a normal emotion in some situations. And I don’t play games mind reading people ... what a waste of time. (Not about anyone here) __________________ |

Me too.
Little Turtle, has some medical professional specifically told you on the basis of your biomarkers that you are at risk for dementia, or is your fear based on your knowledge of your own lifestyle, family history and general statistics?

A search through PubMed yields plenty of articles referencing Alzheimer's Disease as "Type 3 Diabetes." The intricacies of the relationships among everything involved in diabetes and dementia are well beyond my capacities and, being beyond me, create shadows where all sorts of fears may thrive.
Looking back at the results of some of my own recent-ish tests, a fasting blood glucose level of 90 is still firmly in the "normal" range -- understanding the ranges are not set in stone. On the other hand, some make an excellent case that anyone eating a modern diet is "very close to pre-diabetes" or at least more susceptible to developing insulin resistance than standard clinical practice recognizes. Gosh. I wish I could get there. __________________ My dog mastered the "fetch" command. He would communicate he wanted something, and I would fetch it. |

rohag I was pre-diabetic and was able to reverse that condition... but now I have a certain amount of insulin resistance... so 90 fbg may be good for others but it is too high for me... and I also had a fasting insulin level taken----it was a little high... so sugar is my downfall... |

Thank you, Little Turtle. The context of your own history justifies your concern no matter how envious others may be of that 90 FBG.
In my case, restricting sugar by itself did not have the desired effect. I have only been able to "improve my metabolic markers" by extending the restrictions to almost everything that rapidly breaks down into glucose and so elicits a strong insulin response. I'm not having fun. (For the moment I ignore the issue of whether or not I can experience fun.) Congratulations on having once reversed pre-diabetes! Bravo! __________________ My dog mastered the "fetch" command. He would communicate he wanted something, and I would fetch it. |

I woke up this morning feeling awful...mostly scared...
I thought it was a return of AWFUL depression... maybe my withdrawal from celexa was not going good.. maybe it was a valium day....but it could be that today was the day that too much thanksgiving food and wine was hitting me.....maybe....so a cup of coffee and my first walk helped some...and i talked over the news with my wife which helped....it would be much worse all alone... right now my working theory is I ate and drank too much good stuff and it is coming back to bite me....I hope that is it.. thank you for reading all this crap |

My paws are crossed for you I have Valium but no celexa or the equivalent (I do have some agomelatine but it does nothing ) I have been taking some 5htp for a few days before supper.. I think it might possibly be helping a bit. Slightly less anxiety .. __________________ |

I also am having problems today, and the last few days with I guess you could call it guilt, about my parents. I am trying to work through this.
