Sugar drop and anxiety

Sometimes my anxiety feels like a sugar drop but today when I started feeling an anxiety attack come on it felt like a sugar drop and I had 2 peices of chocolate and things settled down so now starting to think some of my anxiety might be related to sugar levels. My sugar levels were normal in my recent blood work. Anyone have any comments?

I get like that too! When I feel anxious I have soft drink or something sugar n feel better. Not fully better but calmer.

Having my favorite piece of candy always seems to settle me down. i always get this feeling i also start to get dizzy n weak. My sugar levels are perfectly fine. Try to relax and god be with you. Your not alone.

I have read that anxiety can affect blood sugar and that sweets can make you feel better for a little while. They have endorphins or something.
