My diet is all out of whack, and I'm not feeling well, at all. I don't want to eat at work or take breaks, because I want to keep my job, and I'm paying for it now. Doing that has hit me hard, like a ton of bricks. I've been trying to feel better all day now. I'm feeling physically sick, like I'm literally being weighed down by a ton of bricks, but at the same time I'm so impulsive, and I'm acting completely hysterical or hyper intermittently, but I can't help it. I think I [need] a distraction from how Depressed I feel. I would go for a run instead, but I don't have that kind of energy to exhort myself like that right now. I'd probably pass out on the sidewalk anyway

Does anyone else experience the same thing after not eating right?

If you are not feeling well please take yourself to the doctor and get your blood sugar tested and get what ever you need to checked out.

I know that when my blood sugar goes down, I can't consentrate. I would suggest you see a doctor to find out if you suffer from hypoglycimia. If you do, basically you have to eat the way a diabetic does for the rest of your life.

I don't want to eat at work or take breaks, because I want to keep my job, and I'm paying for it now.

Stop doing that I don't think any federal laws require lunch or coffee breaks but some states do. I've never had an employer who didn't give lunch breaks. Are you being pressured by management to work through your breaks?

I know what you mean about the work thing. I am experiencing similar. Maybe explain to the employer that you have a blood sugar issue, and if you can keep little snacks in your pocket, like a fruit strip or some nuts, and pop them in on occasion? That's what I have to do. It will do you no good to work through your breaks if you pass out and cannot work!!! (gentle hugs, and I hope this response was ok)

i am not familiar with us laws, but in the uk the law states employers have to make reasonable adjustments for employers, this includes things like five minute breaks every so often for diabetics so they can maintain their levels by injecting or eating or whatever they need to do. any employer who does not hold to this is seen as discriminating the employee and can be taken to court and in some instances firms have been made to pay millions in compensation.
try having a bag of nuts or something you can nibble whilst working, but please do not forgo necessary food for the sake of a job, if you do you will end up out of work because you will become too ill to work at all.

You need to feed yourself and keep yourself hydrated to perform on the job.
