i think most people get a sugar rush and then come down from it is normal, but you sound a little more so, like maybe you are having too much maybe. When I was young I use to have chocolat right before my cycle each month because it kept me from getting mean and biyotchy.....I used it like a medicine really. On those days also that I was feeling tired and blue a piece of chocolate would like turn the light in in my head and snap me out of it. So I am telling you I think sugar or chocolate or caffein can trigger different responses....and it does not mean your diabetic.
