For the longest time, doctors have been telling me that this is just in my head. I strongly disagreed then and I even more so disagree now that I am seeing this in my kids. White sugar makes me crazy. Too much organic sugar has the same effect but it isn't so prolific as the refined sugar's effect. Can anybody relate? This is what happens: about anywhere from 48 to 72 hours after ingesting either candy or "one too many organically sweetened cookies" I start to feel like I don't like my house, I start to feel I just don't belong anywhere, that I am a horrible mother, horrible wife, horrible daughter, horrible person. This is followed by crying, yelling and then falling asleep only to have nightmares until this dreaded feeling passes. Once it passes, I'm happy again. I feel warmth and love. I feel devoted to all that I love. Anybody??? I have to constantly urge my kids not to eat refined sugar and to control the organically sweetened products in their lives. I had a co-worked say that this means I'm nuts. She said, "there's an old tale about never giving sugar to crazy people." I don't know about that now that science is moving ahead so quickly. My kids have inherited this problem too. In the long run, they will probably be healthier because they are forced to avoid sugar. Too many refined carbs make me nuts too. Does anybody have this problem? Maybe a lot of people have nutritional issues and aren't really mentally ill. Some people.
