GAD & Nervous Stomach

Mental health
1

I have recently been struggling with I believe is generalized anxiety disorder. I worry constantly and am stressed about so much; my career, my future, body image, money, my weight, my health. It has caused me to have ibs symptoms and insecurity to the point I don’t want to go places for fear of being judged. My stomach is always bloated, but whenever I have an event to go to or want to go out, I have the worst nervous stomach! And it does not go away until the next day. 

After years of this, I’ve decided to treat my anxiety with SSRI’s. My psychiatrist prescribed me Zoloft. I am currently on 50mg. 

Was wondering if anyone else had nervous stomach as a symptom of their anxiety and if SSRI’s helped relieve that tension?

You are taking your medications and suffer Anxiety, you will find many here have the same.

Hang about they will be able to put your mind at rest

Medications and their suitability varies, what suites on will not suit another, we are all different. You will need to allow five weeks before you feel you are getting better ?

Yes I have anxiety and nervous stomach. Bouts of diarrhea and IBS. Medication does help and also breathing and relaxation.
