Hi everyone, I'm new here and hoping maybe someone will be able to help guide me in the right direction. I'm not someone who usually posts on the internet begging for help, but I'm at the end of my rope here so please, please help me if you can. I'm a 24 yr old female and I've had GAD/emetophobia for 6 years, and an always iffy stomach. I've never felt 100% right but a lot of it was caused by anxiety, and I lived a pretty full life/ran my own business/was generally very happy. Until August of this year. It started one night with a queasy stomach and really bad acid reflux. I chalked it up to something I had eaten, went to bed and had the thought that it was going to trigger my anxiety the next day but didn't give it a second thought until I had to leave my house the next evening. I had a really bad panic attack in the car that night and was super restless, but made it through. That happened to me every time I went in the car for the next few days, but it always subsided when I got home and felt better. Then it started a few days later with constant, severe nausea. I barely ate, drank, or left my home for a bit. I'm super emetophobic, so I wanted to die, but I just figured I'd wait it out. Except then it never left. I got horrible symptoms, this constant nausea, everything triggered it, and I got to a point where the feeling in my stomach is constant and I'm terrified I'm going to vomit. I feel like it's right there all day every day, and the minute something makes it worse the symptoms get unbearable. It's either a gnawing, cramping pain in my abdomen, a churning, itchy queasy feeling in my stomach or a numb wave of feeling like it's about to happen that I get, or all three at once. I get these waves of feeling like I should be throwing up but it doesn't happen and they scare me because I don't understand how that's possible and I'm terrified. I cry constantly and even feel seasick sometimes. This is the worst thing that possibly could happen to me, short of actually vomiting, and I can't get away from it. I've spent the last four months running from doctor to doctor, trying to figure it out. All tests shot of an endoscopy (I've also got a longterm heart condition, so I'm a little wary of going under for no reason), nothing came back, except for parasitic infections which I'm currently being treated for. Is this anxiety? Have any of you ever had anything similar?
