Sorry, this is mostly just a rant...
Does anyone else get so many physical symptoms from anxiety and depression (mostly upset stomach, IBS and exhaustion) that you find it hard to know if something is just psychological or if you're actually sick? Nauseau and digestion issues have just become completely normal for me, since I usually experience some strange symptoms every day or every other day.
So I ignored my upset stomach while I was grocery shopping, figuring it was just anxiety, or maybe all the surpressed stress from the past week coming out.... didn't buy any foods that would be good for when you're really ill. But now I think it might not just be a psychological thing, as my stomach seems worse than usual and there is no reason for me to be anxious. But then I also have emotophobia so I panick easily when I *think* I might be really sick, so then more anxiety rushes it and it makes it even harder to figure out what's going on.
I'm not sure if this post is making any sense at all right now but maybe someone recognizes the problem and can share my misery
