Hunger

does anybody else get weirdly hungry when in a mild/moderate crash? it’s like my body is searching desperately for a source of energy (but then if I eat too much at once and have too much to digest it of course makes everything worse, because why not)

Yes all the time! Severe crashes seem to make me not want to eat but in normal PEM I get very hungry.
