Insulin resistance hypoglicemia and anxiety

So I have insulin resistance with high HoMa IR and insulin. I noticed that when I eat lots of carbs my anxiety skyrocketed .I am sure it has Something to do with reactive hypoglycemia. I also feel anxious in the morning every single day. Would a lower carb diet be the answer ?

Anxiety depression and insulin resistance

Hello everyone. I have a dillema. I am trying a keto diet to cure my insulin resistance. Last week I was not keto at all and well I had constant panic attacks all day. I suspect it might be from hyper and hypoglycemia rollercoaster. Given that I am also insulin resistant. But the thing is keto also when I start it gives me anxiety spikes so I do not understand. What would be the Best way to loosen the anxiety without falling off the diet? Anyone else cured anxiety and depression with keto?

Anxiety

Hello everyone. So I have insulin resistance and yes I should do low carb but was in a vacation and I said this time no I will eat whatever I want. Well slowly but surely I started having moments of panic and anxiety and I was wondering if anyone could relate. It might be the rollecoaster of hyper and hypoglycemia. The thing is when I start a keto diet with low carb its the same, I have a surge of cortisol and I am anxious also. So what can I do?

Any good stories I only read of tapering and bad experiences?

I am just two days in with mirtazapine and I wonder If I should keep going or I should quit. The thing is its helping my anxiety already and the sleep but not depression yet. Of course its too early. But I read so many bad stories of how it ruined people lives with weight gain anhedonia and all other stuff so I am pretty scared to take it further..Any positive stories for depression ?

Depressed after eating gluten

I just feel like crying and depressed two or three days after eating gluten . i ruled out celiac with tests so I figured I could just eat and that's all. But I do have GI symptoms and pains and depression after gluten so I wonder if its just my main depression for which I am medicated or gluten really messes me up more . I could have NCGS but to cause depression so fast out of the blue is this normal for someone with NCGS?
