Anxiety symptoms vastly alleviated through dietary changes

F came to see me because of anxiety and feeling ‘unreal’. Psychological treatment had not helped.  Her history showed bowel problems for some years: constipation since 5. A conventional approach would be to treat her with SSRI medication for the anxiety.  I looked at her gut closely and found very unbalanced bacteria and that she had raised antibodies on some food intolerance testing. We altered her diet (removed some foods), treated her gut and her sense of derealisation went and her anxiety dropped. A small amount of CBT removed the rest.  She was later able to reintroduce all the foods that she had been sensitive to, over time.
