Low glucose anxiety

Type 1

I'm making this post out of curiosity, does anyone get anxiety symptoms when their glucose goes low? Personally, I struggle with anxiety and find that there is a difference between panic attack dizziness and low glucose dizziness... however, I've found that recently the two have started to merge, so when my glucose goes low I start having panic attack symptoms. For example, the world started spinning and I felt straight up fear that started a few minutes ago, so I checked my glucose and its low. I've been diabetic since 2009 and panic attacks triggered by low glucose is a new thing for me.
