‼️[TW: mention of SH and SI urges]‼️

are any other neurodivergents extremely sensitive to how not eating enough effects them?

like, let me explain some more.

when i don’t eat enough and continue to not eat enough, it feels incredibly similar to depressive episodes.

i get really low, emotionally and mentally, all energy is drained from my physically and executive dysfunction is there so much more, and all of the skills to healthily cope and work through stressors/depressive thoughts/emotions in general just completely go out the window or are extremely harder to do, and i also start having SI and SH urges and thoughts, my PTSD is triggered more easily, my GAD goes out the roof, and etc. etc.

that happens whenever i’ve forgotten to eat.

and it just makes me wonder if any other neurodivergents have that experience as well. can anyone relate?

my brain when my GAD exists: “there’s someone behind the shower curtain, open it”

my logical brain: “there literally is no one there ever, also i would hear if someone came in, also there’s other people in the house, how could someone come in and go behind the shower curtain when there’s so many people in here, and ALSO WHY WOULD THEY”

my brain with my GAD: “idk, but there’s definitely someone behind the curtain, we must have it always open to eliminate that hiding spot”

my logical brain: *sigh* “fine”
