Hi I'm new here and I just wanted some insight. I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right forum but anyway - I am experiencing these sudden jolts in my stomach. They're similar to the way butterflies work, but much worse. From what I've looked at, its caused by anxiety. I've developed a sickening addiction to this feeling, and I wanted to know why. It used to occur whenever I released that an assignment or such was due immediately the next day and I hadn't started. Now however I get it at the slightest things. Why is it somehow addictive and is it caused by anxiety?
