Are Gastro Issues Linked to Anxiety and Work Stress?

Gastro problem, anxiety depression tension repetition in work

1 Answer
Dr. Vikas Patel

Psychiatrist

Answered on 20th Mar '25

Gastrointestinal discomfort can often stem from stress and emotional strain. Symptoms may include bloating, stomach pain, or changes in bowel habits. These physical manifestations can result from heightened anxiety or tension stemming from daily challenges. To alleviate these issues, consider practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing or mindfulness exercises. Maintaining a balanced diet and staying hydrated are also essential. If symptoms persist or worsen, I strongly recommend seeking guidance from a gastroenterologist for Gastrointestinal issues and psychiatrist for emotional health. They can provide a tailored approach to both physical and emotional health, ensuring comprehensive care and support.

I am 12 years old and i took valerian to sleep and ive been feeling anxious drowsy and been having insomnia ive lost my appetite too please tell me a way how to fix it at home

Male | 12

The use of valerian can lead to side effects such as anxiety, drowsiness, and insomnia. Also, a loss of appetite is a usual issue. To make it easier, drink a lot of water, eat light meals, and engage in calm activities like walking. Being careful not to take any more valerian is important. You will feel better shortly if you rest and take care of yourself.

Female | 22

Your fear of being judged, rejected, and overthinking can be symptoms of anxiety. The head injury that you had in your adolescent period may also be linked to your headaches and memory issues now. Of course, speaking with a mental health professional is the best way to get help, but you also might want to see a neurologist for your head injury.

I have been suffering from mental problems for 22 years. This is the result of excessive study and researching day and night on various topics. At first severe headache lasted for 2 years. My mind was weak. I could not stay in one place for more than 5 days. I used to run away from home aimlessly. I used to come back again. My sister wanted to get lost in the forest. I wanted to commit suicide. I tried thousands of times but failed. I drank poison once but I survived. The biggest problem was that I could not study. But I had an indomitable desire to study. I did not sleep all night. I used to get very angry. I haven't talked to Karo for 1 year. I haven't even left the house. Finally, I got some relief by dropping my studies. But sometimes this problem bothers me. Anyway, after seeing the doctor, I started tuition. After 7 years went by, but the problem did not go away, I was having a lot of problems in getting students. Not working. Not forced to work hard. Left tuition and started working in a company. It gave me some relief. Sleeping. Now my humble request is, what should I do to get fully healthy? So that I can teach tuition again and spend the rest of my life in peace. Please advise me.

Hi, I got prescribed sertraline 50mg and wanted to start treatment. However, I took St John’s wort 3 days ago. Is this safe for me to start sertraline treatment tomorrow?

Female | 22

Se­rtraline helps with depre­ssion and anxiety. St. John's Wort is an herb that doesn't mix we­ll with sertraline. Togethe­r, they could cause serotonin syndrome­ - symptoms like confusion, fast heartbeat, and high blood pre­ssure. It's better to wait 2 we­eks after stopping St. John's Wort before­ starting sertraline. This preve­nts any issues from occurring.

Hello 2 years ago, I had ED, only sometimes (once or twice a month i used to get very hard errection otherwise it was very very spongy like) - I then had panic attacks diagnosis and started taking serlift and etizom for 5 months now. I noticed my muscles and body is grown and also I get hard errection when i have a strong desire. Sometimes twice a day but when i am sad again, i again have the problem. Is my ed because of this panic attacks? Will it go away automatically forever or can it come back after i stop medicines?

Male | 26

You’ve had a tough time dealing with erectile dysfunction before, and sometimes, medical conditions can be a cause. Feeling down or stressed can also affect your ability to get an erection. The good news is that your current medication seems to be helping. As your mental health improves, your ED might get better as well.

My cousin is suffering from schizophrenia. He used to have severe headaches, personality changes and he hear voices. He only use paracetamol for headaches but no cure. Please prescribe me medicine for headache.

Male | 18

It is of no less than significant to note that the problem of headache can be professionally diagnosed not only due to the lack of sleep but also the fact of day-to-day stress, or the emotional malaise. Lymph node noise is one of many common signs occurring both in the relative and a person undergoing the same condition. Schizophrenics may experience headaches. The use of paracetamol won't solve the question as the case is deeper. It's always a good idea to visit a physician to be treated correctly.

Can I take my xanax and drink orange juice?

Female | 71

To get the Xanax to work effectively, don't take it with orange juice. Xanax is in a class of medications called benzodiazepines. Mixing it with orange juice makes your body absorb Xanax less well because the juice's acidity interferes with this process.

Hi. I suffer from severe OCD, anxiety and depression and I'm on two antidepressants - fluoxetine and mirtazapine. I am wondering about the efficacy of vortioxetine in treating OCD, anxiety and depression and whether replacing mirtazapine with vortioxetine will bring improvement to my mental health. I can't find any information on Google. Both of them are atypical antidepressants. Is vortioxetine superior or inferior to mirtazapine in general? Someone told me that vortioxetine is "very mild" in terms of efficacy. Is that true? Thank you.

Male | 25

Like mirtazapine, vortioxetine is believed to help with anxiety, depression, and OCD. Some trials have shown vortioxetine may be useful for these conditions. However, everyone reacts to drugs differently. Therefore, you must talk to your doctor about any changes in your medication so that they can find something that will work for you.

Feeling stressed or having bad days could point to depression. Symptoms might include sadness, hopelessness, and losing interest. Other signs are sleep issues, appetite changes, and trouble focusing. Causes vary and can include genetics, life events, and brain chemistry imbalances. Solutions exist, such as therapy, medication, exercise, and relaxation practices for self-care.
