I became addicted to something sweet over the Holidays and put on 16 pounds...and fell into a nasty depression. I have found the best way to avoid the junk is to leave it at the store. Be strong when you are there and just don't buy it. Take the LLV and the Women's supplements. I have also learned that the healthier I eat, the less I even care about sweet stuff. I haven't had a bit of sugar for 2 weeks, and my mood is up and I feel better than I have ever felt in my life. Seriously. I know it's hard, and sometimes things just seem hopeless, but you CAN do this. You are so much stronger than the candy/sugar. (Please don't think I don't know where you're coming from....I have bipolar disorder and suffered from major PMS (or whatever it was before they came up with the PMDD name)....suicidal many times.) Good for you for reaching out and knowing what you need to do. That is the first step. And it's a huge step. Use the wonderful things doTerra and the good Lord have given us, have faith and put your trust in Him AND in yourself. Let us know how it's going. If you need to check in every day or even several times a day, do it. We are all in this together!
hugs and prayers for you,
Carly

Hello Everyone,
I am usually the one helping people, and now I think I am the one
needing help. I have been suffering from major mood swings for the
past 5 years. I was diagnosed with PMDD (Pre-Menstral Dysphoric
Disorder). I was put on meds for the depression and birth control for
the hormones. Elevation is the reason I started using doTERRA. It
helped with the depression. I do believe that I do have some sort of
hormonal imbalance, however, I am coming to believe that the MAJORITY
of my problem is SUGAR.
I can't seem to get away from it. When I was pregnant with my son I
ate bags and bags of candy. I find myself 5 years later still craving
a large amount of sugar, and the problem is; I eat it. To top it off,
I am hypoglycemic. I never get the sugar high. I get an immediate
sugar low and am ready for a nap. I believe that my sugar consumption
causes Anxiety, depression, and major mood swings when I eat sugar.
My poor family. I snap at them when they have done nothing wrong. I
feel how terrible it makes me feel, every time I eat it, I just can't
seem to get away from it. I am slowly gaining weight, I have NO
energy, I'm tired all the time, headaches, and the list goes on.
I will say minus the LARGE amounts of sugar I am eating, I am a
healthy eater. I don't consume a lot of dairy, eat breads here and
there, it's the sugar that is killing me. I am sick of feeling this
way and am asking for help. This is huge for me since I usually put
myself on the back burner and take care of everyone else first. I
can't help people if I don't take care of me. So, anything you have
to share with me would be a step in the right direction.
Thank you for your help
Rachel
