Sour stomach

Hi there, 

my anxiety is spiraling, in the past few days I am struggling to get through daily tasks, I’ve had a medication change and the side effects feel like they are making my anxiety worse, I suffer from health anxiety and it’s being amplified at the moment, my stomach is so sour and I feel so nauseous all I want to do is lay in bed, has anyone else experienced this? What did you do/eat to help?

I’m sorry to hear you were feeling like this, did things manage to get a bit better through the week? 
I hope so,

hi there,

 

anxiety can definitely manifest in physical ways. i often feel sick, have shortness of breath, and have headaches if I have anxiety. this is usually one of the tell tale signs that i know it's anxiety.  it's no fun, i am sorry you are experiencing that.

 

usually i wait until it passes, and work on my strategies to help that. when im feeling better i will resume normal activities. if its not getting better, i would see your doctor about it.

 

i hope it improves soon,
