whonow, i would like to tell you that you are not alone. just a few months ago i posted my very first thing on this forum. i also suffer from anxiety, especially pyblic speaking anxiety. i had an upcoming practical to do infront of a group of people and with a little help from others, and some excercises on my part.....i aced it.
i would advise you to do physical excercises just until you sweat, atleast once a day. listen to music that you enjoy and find relaxing. and also do breathing excersises. (breathing in via ur nose for 4 secs- then holding your breath in for 4 sec and then blowing it out for 6/7 sec through ur mouth).

Yes, it definitely is an anxiety symptom...and a very common one. The stomach and digestive system are often the first thing to suffer when anxiety levels get high.

You will probably want to work on treating your anxiety by talking with your doctor about therapy, medication or both. Hopefully that will help with the stomach symptoms.

In the meantime, eat small easy to digest meals thoughout the day, so that your stomach is neither too empty or too full. The self help ideas that noddy recommended are also a great idea! You can find more in our Anxiety/Panic Resources as well.

Keep posting with us too...it is great to talk with others who understand.:)

Talk to you soon,

Yes common. I get anxious even when I eat too much. However, I can tell when my anxiety is up because my weight drops and I lose my appetite, depression too can be the issue regarding the eating part.

But yes, nausea too and sometimes because of the medication. So for me I try and eat a little when I take the meds too.

Anxiety can cause lots of symptoms, stomach is symbolic for a lot of things.
