Why can’t I leave the house because of ibs and anxiety

Digestive health

I have been suffering with anxiety for a long time. Ibs is new to me this past year or so. I never linked them both together until the other day. Although I get pains after eating ect. I also get a lot of pains when shopping or out the house. Does anyone else suffer like this? If so what do you do to prevent it!

Hi. This is all the same for me. Are you on any meds???

I have anti depressant and mebevrine. I’ve just stopped mebevrine for peppermint oil

I would take an antispasmodic after eating and before going out.  Try a food diary or the Low Fodmap diet to identify food triggers.  My IBS is in remission because I try to avoid stress.  Try light exercise such as walking or a hobby as a distraction technique to help with the pain.

Have you seen your GP and discussed your Anxiety and IBS. Are you taking any medications

I have been to my doctors and have separate medications for both. I haven’t spoken about them linking yet though

Hopefully you will get relief over Christmas.
