Mariaaaaa, you ask if anxiety can cause stomach problems, in fact the stomach is the organ in the body that reacts most readily and frequently to anxiety. This can take the form of IBS like symptoms, nausea, stomach ache, reflux, pain, diarrhea and so many others. Once your doctor has ruled out a physical cause then you will have the reassurance thwt it's just your over sensitised nerves causing these problems. To effect recovery you have to learn to accept these symptoms which cannot kill you or cause permanent harm. If you can accept them without fear you deny your stomach and bowels the very thing they feed on and the symptoms will resolve. But the Acceptance that is key to recovery mudt be utter acceptance without fear knowing these symptoms are not permanent and can do you no bodily harm.
