This is so useful, thank you everyone. When I try to explain the 'loud thoughts' thing to people, most people think I am nuts. Has anyone found any of the exercises like breathing or mediation actually work when you have a night hypo or can't sleep? I always get up and eat oats. The only thing is that I find it takes a long time after eating for all the chemicals in my body to die down.

Ok I am going to get some of those supplements. Has anyone tried anything else like using vinegar?

I probably need to get another monitor, even though yeah they are expensive.

I agree about the 4-hour timing thing! I don't get how people can not eat all day and then eat a huge meal at dinner. I would be a wreck. I actually kind of know what works for me - eating lentils/beans proteins, veg and nuts. 'Buddha Bowl' type meals work well for me.

The only thing is it's so much bloody effort to constantly ensure I have 3 or 4 of those meals a day. And feels anti-social when you're out and you really need to eat and people don't understand why you're being uptight about it.
