As you may already know, there are many possible causes of GI disturbances. However, research has shown that there is also a correlation between these symptoms and anxiety disorders.
Gastrointestinal (GI) problems are frequent among people with anxiety disorders. Common gastrointestinal disturbances that have been associated with these conditions include diarrhea, nausea, stomach cramps, heartburn, loss of appetite/increased hunger, and constipation. Additionally, some GI diseases such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) have been linked to anxiety disorders.
