Yes, that is what is confusing to me after all these years. Stress and medicine can raise your blood sugar but in the beginning, stress lowered my blood sugar. In either case, eating on a regular schedule seemed to help the situation immensely so I could manage the stress at the time, either way. But I never figured out what made my body switch over the years. Some people eat more with stress and other people say "how can you eat at a time like this?" so the body response is pretty complicated. I am working on it. I am pretty blunt about my stress in my life. I stayed in my marriage until "death do us part" so my stress is now buried two miles north in the cemetery.
Every day I tell myself that he couldn't help himself and I forgive something. I am healing. I am learning. I am "not done yet." Dorisena

Most of my stress is from my son. He and his family live next door. I think his history of drugs in his teens took its' toll on him in the form of dementia. He can't talk without anger and yelling. His siblings call him the scammer. He justifies how he treats me. Others tell me that he is very narcisstic . One of his daughters is also narcisstic, and all 3 have learning disabilities. These are toxic people.
