My name says it all... I am on meds, have therapy etc but am on a downward spiral and want to do everything I can to slow/ stop it before I lose it completely. I'm not sleeping well and am becoming increasingly anxious & more severely depressed. I will discuss this with my dr but in the meantime, what changes can I make to my diet to help?
I don't drink alcohol (at the moment, well occasionally but not often)
I drink very little caffeine - maybe 2 cups of tea and never after 2pm
I eat lots of fruit & veg and very little processed food
No fast food/ junk (other than the odd bit of homemade cake)
I have cut down on bread & stodgy carbs (only have a couple of times a week)
But is there anything I should eat that could help? Or anything else I should avoid?
I know I should exercise more. I'm working on that.
