Hi, I would like to offer some suggestions and have a few questions as well. How many bananas are you eating a day? Could you possibly be pregnant? I'm sorry you feel like you are being a burden to anyone! It sounds like you need some reassurance! What is your heart rate when you wake up? It kinda sounds like you may be having anxiety in the mornings, but I am hoping you will get answers soon. Try some relaxation and meditation exercises when you first wake up and see if this helps you at all.

Hi jmn851! I am currently at about one banana per day, which I include in a morning smoothie that also contains strawberries, spinach, gluten free oats, lactose free vitamin D milk and the occasional orange slice. This is about all I’ve been able to keep down. My potassium levels were checked yesterday and are good, sodium was low which I’m trying to make up for, but it’s tough because despite all the water I drink, my mouth is still so dry and gatorade gives me more acid reflux. I urinate very frequently. I have suffered from anxiety and panic attacks in the past which were very difficult but nothing like what I’m experiencing now. Mornings are especially difficult, and I’m trying to take my time getting out of bed so that I don’t get physically sick. In the meantime, I’ve been doing a lot of meditation and mindfulness. Breathing techniques as well. My doc prescribed me klonopin (it has worked well for me “as needed” in the past for panic attacks) but it does nothing to get rid of how I feel.

Edited to add - No possibility of pregnancy, ruled out by blood test. Anyways, I’ve had zero sex drive in the last couple of months. Which is unusual for me as it’s always been very high.
