Attention all cutters

Dear Friends and Countrymen
I have read several poems about how a person  feels relief and a high
and then I saw these comments about giving blood and thought I would put them out here for consideration:

I feel euphoric when I sit up after donating blood! (This feeling lasts for hours!) A college educated friend explained that it was probably due to lack of oxygen to the brain!!! Yikes!~!
I have extremely low blood pressure!!! I also tend to skip lunch. This is not the Red Cross’s advice!! And yeah, I feel some internal churning later? I did wonder if it was my kidneys or liver! The cat sat on me at night, to show his concern for my inner organs! (He does not usually do this!!!) Drinking TONS of water does help! (apparently, I get dehydrated during the 8hr sleep time?)

I wonder if other people feel HIGH after donating blood???? The sugar & refreshments only intensify the euphoria!!!!!!!!!! Am I borderline diabetic? or something too? what would happen?
