Anxious twinge feeling?

Hi HW family,

It has been a long time since I've posted. I have been doing really well up until the last week.

Have any of you noticed that your anxiety presents itself in a twinging feeling in the stomach? I have been having random (quick jolts) of that stomach dropping/twingy feeling.

It totally feels like anxiety - or maybe when I feel it, it is making me feel anxious? IDK..

Wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar.

Hi Cheri and welcome back!

We are glad to hear from you again...though sorry it's due to returning challenges.

It sounds to me like this could simply be an effect of adrenaline...which we tend to produce in excess when anxious.

If possible, physical exercise is one of the most effective ways of burning off excess stress hormones...

...along with your regular anxiety management coping skills!

Keep posting with us as well...we'll do our best to keep you encouraged! (((❤)
