Stress Center Peer Support

I'm so beyond frustrated and just need a place to vent. I woke up feeling a bit off today, then as I got closer to leaving work was feeling progressively more tired and my stomach was feeling more upset. This progressed into have constant mild and irritating pain with nausea, and feeling like I did with the stomach virus (al though luckily nothing has happened yet). I also had no appetite at all today, and forced myself to eat a little but I know it wasn't enough. I've already been through a Colonoscopy, Endoscopy, and Abdomen Xray which have found nothing. But, at the same time, I often have full days where I have barely no appetite and I have lost a good amount of weight because of that. I'm just so BEYOND frustrated with my stomach, realizing it started interfering with my life about 4 years ago. I also think of how, because of this, I worry about how it affects me professionally (I had to give a brief presentation tonight, and I know I rushed through it because of how I felt...also I know how much I felt sick at my previous job and I called out often). It's weird because things seemed to be better Sept-Nov, but since then all my symptoms are back in full force. I always thought it was tied to my anxiety, but I am on anxiety meds and like I said my symptoms have still returned full force. Now I've lost hope and the sickening feeling in my gut that I have a digestive order has returned (I've always had that feeling). I just don't know what to do, and I know no one's a doctor and don't just know an answer, but like I said it just feels good to vent in some way. I'm planning to pray a lot more in hopes for an answer.

Perfect,
Like you said I am no doctor but my advise to you is to keep using this program and really work hard at it. Try to think when you begin feeling the problems in your stomach, think of your previous thoughts and try to turn them into postive if they were negative.(good chance they were)Also instead of worrying constantly about your stomach and the way you feel, tell yourself that you are completely fine and that nothing happened the last X times and so nothing is going to happen this time. I think that it is your nerves from your anxiety that is making your stomach upset and once you relax you won't have those feelings. As far as your appetite try to eat as much as you can and even if you are only able to eat a little bit make HEALTHY choices. I went through this too where I wasn't eating and not eating can make your stomach hurt! Just use your program and try to relax your mind and you can get through this! God Bless you. Jacquelyne
