My thoughts used to race a lot but when I started restricting more my brain became really
quiet. Now because I don't have the mental
energy
to spiral
like I used to, my anxiety
literally
went away. I used to have panic
attacks in class and didn't talk to anyone, even in group
assignments I just couldn't get myself
to speak. I would
shake
just standing
up in front
of a class for presentations and I was convinced everyone
hated me. That got better
after some therapy
and actively working
on myself
but it really
went away with restriction. I literally
just don't have thoughts like I used. All I used to do before
was think
and now I still think
(obviously lol) but it's more work and more of an action
I actively act on than before. And so because I don't have all these thoughts telling me I'm dumb and stupid
and should
stop talking,and because I'm not going
to actively think
those things to myself, my anxiety
completely died down. I have no problems speaking
to anyone anymore, speaking
in front
of a class, presentations, I just don't have the mental
energy
to be anxious
about it anymore. Curious
if anyone relates?

Yes honestly restricting your diet to certain foods
and having a diet/meal plan can have tremendous effect on weight
loss and general
healthiness.
