Severe depression after eating Gluten multiple days?
Does anyone else get severe depression if they eat gluten multiple days in a row? If I eat gluten once, I experience the typical brain fog and tiredness that passes in a few hours. BUT if I keep eating gluten multiple days, I get crippling depression and emotional dysregulation for multiple days. I'm just getting out of a recent funk and honestly this is terrifying. I feel crazy and I just want to know if anyone has gone through something similar. I also experience pretty severe gastro issues in addition to the mental ones, but is this normal? Has anyone else been battling this too?
The worst part of all this is if I eat gluten too many times in a row, I can't tell when I'm getting "glutened" anymore because I feel mentally and physically awful 100% of the time. Cooking or trying new restaurants used to be one of the few things that made me happy when I was down in the dumps. Now I feel terrified to eat sometimes because I don't know what will happen. Has anyone gone through something similar and found ways to cope? This is awful.
