Sad - Down in the Dumps - Not very Happy

I was diagnosed in February, 2009, and have been gluten free since then.

I have noticed over the past months that I am becoming sad and melancholy feelings prevail. I am not sure what is going on.

I feel like I have lost something very dear to me which of course is food. No matter what I eat, it tastes like dried rice and it is so very sad.

Had a office picnic last week and brought a rice flour sandwich with peanut butter and a plum. How sad. The burgers were checked out ahead and had wheat added and the hotdogs were cooked on the same grill so the cross contamination was there. How depressing.

I won't eat gluten again but am only 55. I have lost about 35 pounds which is a good thing and my blood sugar has dropped incredibly. I guess I am just having a pittypat party but I have to believe that there are others out there that feel like I do.

Would love to hear from others. I feel like I am the lone soldier out here in this world of mine with little understanding.
