Hello,
Sorry you are not feeling so great right now. I read your post with interest and was wondering what kind of antifungal diet have you been on? What are you eating? Are you also taking any prescription or natural antifungals? I think either are key to getting rid of any fungus condition, if that happens to be your problem.
Realizing you can't/don't have things the way they used to be, whether it be eating habits, friends, job, place you live,etc. can cause depression under normal circumstances, let alone with condition that may be caused by fungus. So, it is hard to know for sure.
If you have already been on this diet for one week, I would not be so quick to give up just yet. You should know more in another week or so if/when you start feeling better. For me, my symptoms were very real fatigue along with flu-like symptoms. Probably lasted into the second week of the diet, but I never felt "better" until the beginning of the third week of the diet. I also went on the diet on my own volition.
I'm thinking it is too soon to tell whether the diet will help you. Your symptoms, however, when you had your good, and bad days, have been known to be fungus-related. Is it that you can't eat what you want that bothers you the most, or the feeling of depression and fatigue? If this diet helps you, are you willing to make a change with how you eat the rest of your life? I now eat pretty well most things again, in moderation, but I know there are still foods I need to avoid (yeasty foods) and limit (sugar). I don't ever entertain the idea of going back to the way I used to eat because I felt so miserable.
What is it that you can't do in social situations? There should be food you can eat, or adapt and take your own, or eat before you go out. We can always find a way to do the things that we really want to do. As for the drinking, it is not a life sentence being on the diet. Once you get well again, you will have to moderate your intake, but you should be able to have a drink now and again. I drink red wine pretty well every weekend. Every one is different, however.
I hope you are encouraged to continue with the diet. How will you ever know otherwise? If it doesn't help, go from there.
Take care.
Kim
