I keep wondering if what I think is low blood sugar is actually dissociating because it always happens when I get to work and I keep eating thinking it is a drop in sugar. When I actual had low blood sugar I shake and get sweaty and feel like I can not stand up and will pass out but with this that does not happen. I can work but I feel more in slow motion and it is hard to concentrate. I do feel I could just sit and stare, not move.
When it finaly passed after 3 hrs I have been easily aggitated and upset.

This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors. |

I have the same problem, I don't know about the low blood sugar but I've went into shock before and it felt the same way: passed out and woke up having seizure, sweating from head to toe, skin was pale and I felt like ****. But I always space out, my entire life, I either go into a trance, find myself day dreaming in another world or everything becomes "fuzzy" and I cannot focus, even when I am trying to pay attention. I find it is difficult to concentrate even when I want to, even if I need to and want to. I attribute it to the ADD. But I've also had severe dissociative symptoms like "out of body" experiences, feeling like I'm living in a dream, not recognizing myself in the mirror and having to pinch myself to see if I'm not just dreaming.

I wish I could help you with this, I just don't know. I have a problem with high blood sugar at times but not low. I know that it's too high and I get drowsy and blech feeling but for me, if this is similar, it's all physical. I can tell the difference if it's a mood/mind thing that's isolated from the physical aspects, but that's just me.

When i get low blood sugar I get jittery and shaky and weak feeling.
But my anxiety attacks feel somewhat similar to low blood sugar and i think that my low blood sugar actually contributes to my anxiety attacks. As soon as I eat a carboyhydrate-high food I get sleepy, dopey, my eyes get glazed. You could get your sugar levels checked maybe, to find out for sure. Even get a tester and prick and test when you feel like that.. see what it reads.
