Does anyones dissociation feel like low blood sugar before it happens? I have been to doctors about low blood sugar attacks for no good reason and all test come out fine but I can tell you these attacks do happen when triggered, stressed or after some therapy sessions.
Is it phycological or physiological? I do not think I actually have real low blood sugar but do grab food in a panic that I am going to pass out.

Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. 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. |

that said I did and do get these same problems with my panic/ anxiety disorders, and also with my mania phase of my bipolar disorder... I also get these symptoms with my MS. my treatment providers call it a panic attack in me. my dissociation symptoms are that I go numb/ unfeeling/ lacking emotions/ sometimes feel like I am sinking but not like Im going to pass out its more like riding an elevator downwards feeling or like the feeling of falling asleep...calm and lacking stress/ emotions. |

I'm borderline hypoglycemic. I don't mix that up with dissociation stuff (they feel different to me), I have been, however mixing it up with hypotension. I found out at my hospital stay that I have low blood pressure. I had no idea that the two had similar symptoms, but they do. Not that low blood pressure is generally a problem, but it might be worth checking out for you if for no other reason to get the symptoms figured out.
But yeah, like what amandalouise said, I have had people tell me that my stuff could be anxiety based as well due to similarities in symptoms. So it makes sense to me that if there is a correlation between being triggered and having these attacks that it could be both anxiety and dissociation based for you. -Avery
