Ahmad, I get where you're coming from. You're dealing with type 1 diabetes for a long time now, and that's not easy. The sexual weakness and mental tiredness you're feeling might be tied to how long you've been managing your blood sugar, among other things. Let's see how Ayurveda can lend a hand. Feeling sexually weak and mentally exhausted could be linked to an imbalance in the Vata and Pitta dosha. Anxiety, anger, feeling sleepy can often be Vata-pitta issues, suggesting some some internal heat and restlessness. So, let’s calm and nourish those energies, yeah? Diet can be a game-changer. Try adding foods that are cooling and grounding, like whole grains (barley, oats), and nuts like almonds – soaked overnight if possible. Think about cooked veggies - carrots, sweet potatoes can be great. Add saffron to warm milk or almond milk, this might help with sexual strength. Keeping it routine is important, so meals should be regular and on time. Avoid hot, spicy, and sour foods. Those can irritate Pitta and make things worse. And caffeine? Try reducing it if you can. It's a stimulant but also dehydrates. On the lifestyle side, gentle yoga and pranayama can balance your mind and body. Asanas like Vajrasana after meals helps in digestion. Simple breathing exercises in the morning, like Anulom Vilom, can calm the mind. Even 10 minutes a day of mindful meditation might ease anger and fatigue. For herbal support, Ashwagandha and Shatavari are superb for energy and vitality. But, always best to consult with a local Ayurvedic practitioner before starting. Since you've got the diabetes background, it's gotta be personalized. Stay consistent and observe changes. And remember, Ayurveda is a journey, not an overnight fix. Keep communicating with your healthcare providers too, especially considering your insulin dependence. Hope this helps, Ahmad. Let me know if there's anything else that's unclear.
