Been working on getting my hormone levels fixed and have been taking supplements for it, wc has so far worked really well on my anxiety levels. Have not shared enough info yet, but for starters, i have been diagnosed with GAD or generalized anxiety disorder. This means that i worry excessively abt everything, even the small stuff. Might sound “normal” specially for moms, but the disorder comes with sensations wc can really be scary like palpitations, brain fogs, jitters, panic attacks, huperventilation, sleepless nights, fear, etc. (More on my total experience and some tips to cope in my other stories soon). I was diagnosed 2 years ago and i only discovered The Core Clinic just recently, and Thank God i did! With the Dutch test that i took, i finally found out the culprit, my hormones are actually out of whack!! So with that, i had to take supplements to balance out the irregularities. Note that It may be different for each person so what worked for me and the reason for my anxiety might be different for some, but it’s definitely helpful to get your hormone levels checked if you are experiencing the same thing. It’s good to note also that aside from the supplements, i have been eating healthy and have started exercising since the diagnosis 2 yrs back. Those 2 were my allies before i even discovered functional medicine. But really, The Core Clinic helped. Cant say im 100% cured (not sure theres such a thing with mental illnesses, but still hoping 😊) but im definitely having more good days than “bad” ones.❤ This is one of the reasons why i started this account. Aside from being a lifestyle blog, i also wanted to share my experience with GAD. and to let other moms know (cause i know theres A LOT more going thru the same thing) that while GAD is a part of us, It is NOT us. We are so much more and have more to share about life. We are also a mom, wife, sister, daughter, friend, a foodie, skin care enthusiast, sometimes a fashionista, a good cook (but not me😉), a funny lady, etc. We are STRONG mommas and we deserve to feel better and live happier
