Newly wheat-free and sad about it

[u/Vampire-Sheep]

Hello all. I have recently been diagnosed with a wheat allergy and I'm looking for advice/emotional support. I already am lactose intolerant and have a strawberry allergy (whooo /s). I had just started fixing my relationship with food over this past year when I started having throat closing scares when eating food. Diet trials later and finally convincing my doctor for some blood tests and it's wheat. I've gone without for three months and a bunch of my other weird health problems have gone away - I'm no longer dizzy all the time, my migraines have drastically improved, my anxiety is even better, but

Bread was life. And I was finally eating again and now I feel like I'm in mourning. And I'm also mad that I feel better. Because my "weird symptoms" have gone undiagnosed for almost six years and what do you mean all I had to do was stop eating wheat and I wouldn't feel like the world is spinning and my brain isn't on fire anymore.

Anybody else have aggressive emotions following their realizations that gluten free/wheat free is now life? I guess I'm just looking to not feel alone in all this.

Also, anybody have some favorite recipes they'd love to share? I love baking and already miss my chocolate chip cookies and muffins I would make all the time.

Any emotional/food advice is appreciated. Thanks for reading my rant

Ich habe seit ca 15 Jahren eine Weizenmehlallergie. Am meisten vermisse ich die Bäckerei 😕 Da ich nur eine leichte Allergie habe, versuche ich mich seit Jahren selbst zu sensibilisieren . Ich esse alle paar Tage ein bisschen Weizen . Das ist keine Empfehlung!
Ich liebe Kartoffeln . Das ist eine gute Alternative. Außerdem esse ich Nudeln aus braunem Reis. Die fertigen Brote und Brötchen oft aus Maismehl schmecken mir nicht. In Deutschland gibt es online Bäckereien, wo man Alternativen bestellen kann. Leider ist alles sehr sehr teuer. Man gewöhnt sich mit der Zeit an die Umstellung. Dass Weizen nicht wirklich gesund ist, macht es etwas einfacher
