I’m gluten free for 9 weeks today! I’m feeling better….slowly. I realized that I was actually feeling grief a few days ago. I feel totally sad over pizza! But I’ve also had ongoing withdrawal issues. Out of the blue, I get attacks of all over nervousness and fear. Luckily, these attacks are becoming milder. But today was a beast. My cravings were horrible and I was feeling angry. Then I realized that this is exactly what an addict must go through. They may seem like they are doing well, and then go off the rails. I know I can’t go back. I accidentally glutened myself once and got sick! But I can see how someone would give up and eat THE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES that my husband bought, that stare at me from the kitchen cabinet! So right now, I’m experiencing grief and withdrawal!
I only get gluten rage when someone says this is all B.S. Yup, just happened to me when I shared my celiac journey. I was told by a relative that it’s all B.S.😢
This is so silly to say but I feel this way about donuts, top ramen or mozzarella sticks from Arby’s specifically. Mostly because these are all things I loved before I went gf. Nice to know I’m not just crazy!😂

I only get angry when I see the freezer full of gluten food because that means there’s no space for any of my food in the freezer
